There were a couple times in Adam Grant’s talk that I was confused or thought he was contradicting himself. I think that wasn’t the case, I was just having trouble following along. There are a few good bits in here though. I should mention that Trey McClain took great notes on all of these, and […]
Ed Catmull – WCAGLS 2015
This was from an interview Bill Hybels did with Ed Catmull, boss of Disney Animation Studios and co-founder of Pixar. Two takeaways I got from this was that he saw the deeper cause and motive behind just making movies and a lot of money. … Sure, people need to know how to render lighting and keyframe the polygons, but they can learn that their own way, what he was concerned about was teaching the culture of creativity and flexibility and trust that will then turn out amazing movies.
Generosity and the life of God
Just like generosity yields more generosity in the recipient, we can give our lives easily because God has put so much life in us.

OneLife How to do Church
We call something lame when it (or he or she) is doing something that really isn’t their thing. Like when your dad says “Wicked” or David Hasselhof sings heavy metal. Moreso than most other things, The Church should NOT be lame.
Peaceful as a Weaned Baby
[1] O LORD, my heart is not lifted up; my eyes are not raised too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me. [2] But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child is my soul within me. […]
Screwtape in Danger
I’m reading the Screwtape Letters, which has to be, by far, my favorite book of all. Screwtape is writing to his nephew, a junior demon that has just begun the job of tempting a human and leading him (hopefully for Wormwood) to Hell. Screwtape is talking in this section about how ‘The Enemy’ (which of […]
