I was happy to get a letter from Harry. To be honest, I’m disappointed at the inability of Christian leaders to carry on a conversation, be criticized and defend their beliefs in public. Generally the consensus from…
The earliest I can remember the Street Preacher downtown Sarnia was back around Halloween of 2011. We were having a pirate themed Murder Mystery Party at theStory and some friends dressed as pirates came running…
Over the last six months or so, our beautiful downtown Sarnia has been inhabited with a Street Preacher (the whole soapbox and everything) and an entourage of Street Preacher Disciples of a range of ages handing out…
We are making our way through Acts at a fairly good pace and we are seeing how the gospel is starting to make its way to the ends of the earth. We are starting to…
My wife and I have had the luxury of traveling quite a bit over the last few years and a lot of that is thanks to our TD Infinite Visa. I did a bunch of research before…
So after our two week break for Easter, we are coming back into the book of Acts. We’ve spent a lot of time more in liturgical settings with doing readings out loud, prayers out loud…
We all met 15 minutes before sunrise at the local beach. We had a big campfire roaring as people showed up. After the liturgy we went back to our space and had a pancake breakfast….

See More Art Installations… Steph and I are displaying our Iceland photos at the March 2012 First Friday downtown Sarnia. We’ll also be showing our Iceland video. The first shot below is from Steph and…

Turns out that Fra Angelico, an Italian painter from the 1400’s has a response to John Piper and his whole masculine Christianity. Here in this painting Jesus is praying in Gethaname, the disciples are sleeping…
Rachel Held Evans challenged to male bloggers last week in response to John Piper’s statement at the Desiring God conference that “God has given Christianity a masculine feel”, which she thought was “a strange way…
I’ve noticed a trend. In my response against consumerism and hating collecting items or my opposition about buying unnecessary goods, I have caught myself falling for another kind of consumption that isn’t healthy. It’s the…
Something in a conversation I had tonight sparked this post, there is nothing of substantial value in this post, it’s just me ranting. Fitch has an excellent post on this topic here if you want…
