Hey all,
Sarah and I are in The Big Apple for International Arts Movement’s 2009 Encounter. It is the annual conference where artists and creative catalysts gather to talk about issues surrounding art, faith, and what it means to be fully human. This years encounter is full of solid presenters who all desire to see their fellow human beings grow. The underlying spirit of these encounters has always been the biblical principle of loving your neighbor as yourself. And this year it is no less true.
For this years Encounter Sarah has done most of the print work used during the conference including the Encounter program (more on this later).
This week I was interviewed as part of the IAM podcasts concerning my involvement in IAM related to what kind of world that ought to exist….or ought to be. You can find that here.
Please pray for all attendees safety and that their pilgrimages toward truth, goodness, and beauty would lead them to the true source of truth, goodness, and beauty.

Your faces look familiar; I think we were in a seminar or two together :p
Hi you two! I just listened to your podcast, Kirk. Well done! Enjoyed hearing your thoughts.
I greatly eneyjod the lecture, Kirk. Thanks for thinking through these things so deeply and sharing what you’ve learned.I realized afterwards what I was getting at with my question about changing styles and their relation to beauty. I’m pondering what determines what is “in style”. It seems to be something other than beauty as you defined it, and so my next question is how is it related to beauty, and how is it different? Is it society’s seeking after beauty, and if so, what causes us collectively to miss so badly so often, so that stylish things become shameful with the passing of time? Thanks again for the talk; it’s given me much to think about.
