Could You Be Food Creative?

foodchallenge

D & I are now the proud sponsors of not just one Compassion child, but TWO. That’s right. We fell so in love with Jose at first sight that we decided to Sponsor Amiru too. Amiru is 3 and is from Ethiopia, and we are already completely in love with him as well. Being new  [ Read More ]

Artist Feature: Heatherlyn

Some time ago I featured Heatherlyn during a Music Monday post. She and her husband Jason may be one of my greatest inspirations for living simply and for following my wildest dreams. They “get it” – that life is not about what you own or where you go, but instead life is about being the  [ Read More ]

My Goodreads Review: When the Emperor Was Divine

japanese-1

When the Emperor Was Divine by Julie Otsuka My rating: 4 of 5 stars There aren’t a ton of books out there that deal with the tough topic of the Japanese-American Internment camps during World War II. This is a wonderful novel that uses the story of a family to highlight the injustice that occurred  [ Read More ]

Day Two: Law & Gospel

scaleofjusticebefore

As a Lutheran, I hear the phrase law & gospel quite frequently. One of the great things that is happening because of our experiment is a wrestling with “the law” that we’ve created for ourselves. Many thanks to those of you who have challenged our “list of rules” as being contradictory to the simple life.  [ Read More ]

Imagining Homelessness

D and I had the joy of spending last week in downtown Knoxville with 20 youth and 1 other adult from our own congregation as well as youth and adults from St. John’s Lutheran Church, Spirit of Joy Lutheran Church, and Christ the King Lutheran Church for WOW 2010.  As part of WOW, we stay  [ Read More ]

The Simplicity Project

A little over a week ago I referred to a new experiment and promised more details soon. Maybe it was a spiritual disciplines small group I’ve been a part of, or maybe it was Monkey Town, or maybe it was Present Perfect, or perhaps it was a combination of these three and many other factors, but D and  [ Read More ]

Music Feature: Man In The Mirror

As I listened to this song a few weeks ago, I heard something different than I ever had before. If I had the chance to ask Michael Jackson what he meant by this song, I think he would say he hoped it would remind us of just how broken we all are. And maybe he  [ Read More ]

Music Feature: One

It’s been chaotic and busy here in Knoxville, so I apologize for the delay in this post!  This song is one that has always been near and dear to my heart.  Yesterday our Bible study surrounded this song – we talked about the importance of uniting with one another in the midst of our differences  [ Read More ]
