One of the aims of this blog is to observe and note ‘echoes’ (occurrences, examples, etc.) of the Gospel in our culture, our nature, and our world. I believe the core elements of the Gospel to be so fundamental to our existence that these echoes are all around us – creation, fall, redemption, and restoration. Examples of the universality of this ‘myth’ abound everywhere.
Take for instance, Bobby McFerrin’s live demonstration of the universality of the pentatonic scale…
Here’s some of the pics I took on our Boundary Waters spiritual formation trip. Enjoy!
Our band of merry men. From L to R. Jeff, William, Jason, Sokho, Rich, Baba, Frank, and John.
The Wilderness greeting us as we set out from Fall Lake
Our shelter for the next six days.
Our 'host' greeting us at our campsite!
Some of the falls. Shoulda brought my fly rod...<sigh>...
...no matter. Still got my fish on!
And our eat on!
A day trip to see some Indian pictograms on some crazy high cliffs.
Stopped for a brief respite and some lunch!
B-dub Bandits!
Making our way through the Horse River
And portage at others.
I think this pic sums up the trip pretty well.
