The Hobbit: Start of Production
Category Fun, Movies, Spirituality
Some of you know I’m a huge nerd at heart. Tolkien’s epic stories of hobbits, magic and wizards were books I read early in my teenage youth and returned to several times. That was when it was still in the fantasy/nerdy genre. Along came Peter Jackson who brought to life the stories on the screen – introducing a whole new generation to them, distilling the stories for mainstream consumption.
These stories are deeply shaping and inspiring. Tolkien, at times, very thinly veils his faith in the stories. There are tales of sin enslaving creatures (Gollum), the shared burden carrying of community (the fellowship), the guiding priestly figure of Gandalf, etc.
My heart warmed and excitement jumped as I saw this video post today. Video production of The Hobbit has begun. Hooray!

Beautiful Things
Category Fun, Illini Life, Ministry, music, Spirituality, Videos
Recently I was introduced to the song “Beautiful Things” by Gungor. It was in a worship set when I was back home with Illini Life Christian Fellowship at University of Illinois. Since then I’ve heard it in several other churches as I’ve met with folks around the Chicagoland area.
It’s catchy and I love to simplicity of the chorus
You make beautiful things,
You make beautiful things out of dust.
You make beautiful things,
You make beautiful things out of us.
