Hope for the broken based on Jesus' words in Matthew 5.

• We're made in the image of our Creator, who is creative (Gen 1) and who designed us to be creative (Gen 2).

• Here's the thesis: To be creative we must allow ourselves the luxury and the discomfort of boredom.

• The algorythms disrupt this God-given impulse, turning us into consumers.

Tonight we dug deeper into the theme of how we are meant to let go and let God, and what we are meant to hold onto instead of what we naturally do.

This was a Wednesday Whiteboard chat.

Some questions and answers after one of my annual week of counseling short term missions students.

Carl Chupp taught Wednesday Whiteboard. :)

We're in a battle, but the true enemy is never a human.

1. Hurt enough - realize need for change
2. Learn enough - realize change is possible
3. Receive enough - able to change

"I don't know," can be scary, but if we want to take the posture of a learner, it's essential.

This Wednesday Whiteboard session was about how we are a part of a much larger story of God's covenant with family lineage, not just individuals.

We ended by making some declarations and doing some good spiritual work breaking agreements and making agreements with gospel truths.
