- Conversion/Transformation
- Lt. John J. Dunbar is "converted/transformed" into
Dances With Wolves by learning a new language, learning new stories, and
learning to tell his story in a new way. This is very much how Jesus
trained the first disciples and how today's disciples are most fruitfully
transformed. The Gospel story is the story that claimed us before we
knew we didn't have a story. (paraphrased from Dr. Stanley Hauerwas
by Jon/Holly Stouffer)
- Journey
- Kicking Bird: I was thinking that of all the trails
in this life, there is one that matters more than all the others. It
is the trail of a human being. I think that you are on this trail
and it is good to see.
