How Important is the Support for Arts in a Community?
When I was a teenager, I found a tremendous sense of meaning in the local music scene. Granted, it was a punk rock scene, and there happened to be many unseemly activities associated with it (my parents were right to be concerned). However, I knew better than to participate in anything illegal. I was just…

Read MoreTOMS – Committed to help
TOMS is a redemptive business that exemplified how business can be used positively for social impact. The company was founded in 2006 and used the One for One model, so that for every pair of shoes that was sold, the company donated a pair to a child in need. This is a simple but effective…
Read MoreChristians Consuming Media Consciously

For nothingness put up no resistance to Him, as we did.” – Peter Kreeft I have been pondering this quote the past couple days; what an incredible reality. We…
Read MoreDance as a Mission
“Let them praise his name with dancing, making melody to him with tambourine and lyre!” Psalms 149:3 Dance is a beautiful way of displaying a form of art through creativity, musicality, flexibility, strength, and rhythm.

Read MoreDon’t settle for fine
I have recently been obsessed with the following phrase: “Just because something isn’t wrong doesn’t mean it’s wise.” We are surrounded by a culture that pushes us into that moral grey area in order to get us to consume.
