Power of One
Power of One - It is because of the creativity and ingenuity of people like Rebecca Onie that give me hope for a better future (especially in terms of health care).
Can you connect going up stairs with worship
I found this video, and while it is not profound it does seem to visually articulate something about human nature.
My question is, in light of this experiment, what do you think could change in worship to have 66% more people using the path of worship than another path?
My question is, in light of this experiment, what do you think could change in worship to have 66% more people using the path of worship than another path?
Or, if that is too specific or outside your normal thinking, what about these questions:
What can you do to change a mundane behavior into something people want to participate in?
What if music cam with every footstep?
How can you and I nudge people to partake in activities/actions which are better for their health?
Would you have stopped in your day to 'play' a bit on the stairs?
Culture Making, meet Gandhi...
Whenever I despair, I remember that the way of truth and love has always won. There may be tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they may seem invincible, but in the end, they always fail. Think of it: always
-Gandhi
In light of this quote I ran across a section in the book "Culture Making" which I though was stated very nicely.
Nothing that matters, no matter how sudden, does not have a long history and take part in a long future. And like earthquakes, revolutions are much better at destroying than building. There is an important asymmetry here, whose roots go all the way down to the laws of physics: It is possible to change things quickly for the worse. It only took two hours after the collision between a 767 and the South Tower of the World Trade Center to destroy it. But no one can build the World Trade Center in two hours. The only thing you can do with Rome in a day is burn it.
The Revolutionaries - and terrorists - of the world put their hope in cataclysmic events. But even they are likely to be disappointed by the long-term effects of their actions.

I am not sure what to make of all this but I really like these two quotes.
