Have you ever heard of The Fun Theory? It is a awesome website with making life more fun than it currently is. For example, I just saw this video of how they changed a staircase in Stockholm into a piano in order to see if more commuters would take the stairs over the escalator…it worked. [...]

Campus Ministry vs. Church College Ministry

Digital Natives
Digital Natives is a term being used for people under the age of 30. I just make it into this realm but am not sure if I totally fit the profile. A post by Scott M. talks about how they/we think and react. This generation is definitely different to previous ones in values, communication, expectations [...]
