psalm 8

the pslamist asked the question of GOD: "Who are we that you spend time thinking about us?" and that is, indeed, a troubling and poignant question. one that deserves to be looked at and explored.

the following video was used for our kick-off night on wed. sept. 16th and the beginning of our series "who are you?" which is exploring a kind of "theological anthropology" seeing ourselves less like other humans see us [including ourselves] and more like the way GOD sees us.

our second week featured steph sharing some profound and moving stories about her time in zambia to a packed house of people. then the lights went off and we found ourselves experiencing a more 'natural' evening service where we could see very little other than the sounds of the noises on the street and see little beyond the flickering glow of candlelights.

both these nights [and the next two to come] have been about sharing our faith and community with each other as we attempt to examine, really examine, what it means to be, well, us. who are we? who am i? who are you? the answers to such questions will influence the course of our lives.

hope to see you this week...keep the conversations coming!

here is the video titled 'psalm 8'

paint your faith

immersn likes to support the arts, worship & good ideas

so, when all three happen at the same time we get positively giggly!

without any further adieu:

What is paint your faith?
Four acclaimed aerosol artists have been brought together to collectively express their interpretation of faith. This will take place on a 30' x 60' exterior wall donated by Metropolitan United Church, located in one of downtown Toronto's most culturally diverse neighbourhoods. The mural will be unveiled to the public and the media on September 19th after two weeks of work by the team of artists. During the event, explore and express what faith means to you on one of the many canvases that will be available. Whether it be a circle, a doodle or a complex drawing, seize the opportunity to share your spirituality and creativity with others. And if that isn't enough, you'll also be able to enjoy some BBQ and music throughout the afternoon.
