Jon Foreman: Tomorrow Song – Response V1// Tomorrow, where I will escape, the shadow of yesterday’s perceived great, Sorrow, so familiar and real, these aren’t the marks of tomorrow’s feel.

Gnarly
May 8, 2010

Yesterday evening I went to the Banff Film Festival, which was quite frankly, gnarly. Set up to celebrate and showcase short films of the X-Treme variety, the evening consisted of seven displays from those humans that have a little more of ‘that’ thing in them than most others. Adrenaline personalities I think they call them, [...]

Embracing change
December 7, 2009

This weekend’s conversations have largely been about reaching a place of faith in God’s ability to bring change to people’s lives. I think I had grown a bit cold on this issue, struggling to believe in my heart that this is what God can and does do, but everything I seem to come across at [...]
