Calling all ReKnew friends in D.C.!

A member of our board (Joel Pilger) is developing a video for ReKnew and he needs some volunteers this Saturday. Here’s what he had to say:

I’ll be shooting in DC this Saturday morning. I need a few ReKnew fans and/or supporters that would be willing to appear on camera holding up Manifesto statements.
 
Who am I looking for specifically? CHARACTERS!  Meaning, people that stand out visually / are not generic. For example, just imagine something like:
  • An older black couple standing on the steps of the Capitol, holding up signs:
    • “DON’T CONFUSE THE KINGDOM OF GOD”
    • “WITH THE KINGDOM OF THE WORLD”
  • Several skateboarders standing in front of a picket line of angry protesters, holding up signs:
    • “GET YOUR LIFE FROM CHRIST”
    • “NOT FROM THE RIGHTNESS OF YOUR BELIEFS”
These are just examples. I’m open to suggestions / alternatives / ideas.
If you’re willing to help Joel out you can contact him via Facebook or Twitter here:

When Free Will Meets Unfathomable Evil

In the face of tragedy Christians unfortunately tend to recite clichés that attempt to reassure people that, however terrible things seem, everything is unfolding according to God’s mysterious plan. We hear that “God has his reasons”; “God’s ways are not our ways”;  “God is still on his throne”; “God doesn’t make mistakes,” and things of…
