How often have you heard the phase " I go to church, but I am not "fed"?  Our often is this used to invoke unhappiness with a particular preacher's sermons?  Where does this attitude  of " I need to be fed" come from?  Of course elders, not preachers, are told to "feed the folk.".  But this attitude is clearly one of passivity.  If a congregation doesn't have the "right program", enough "motivational" sermons, or .... whatever the person's felt needs ( as opposed to real needs) are, the…

Media & Communication

As a media technologist who teaches video technology, web mastering, graphics, animation, I would like to share my philosophy on media as a way of communicating. There is a difference between being a "drooling" consumer and being a creative (God-endowed) producer.
