Even when Dad’s pay check keeps us.

When i was in my early teenage years I began playing legit outdoor hockey, with an actual team, and an actual coach. We had practices, and were actually pushed to get better. I remember vividly my first training session. I hated it. We ran, and ran, and ran. And then as a team we ran […]

God’s open room.

In the beginning of time God created little doors. They had the choice to be opened or closed. But if they decided to be closed then nothing could come in or go out. Currently I live in a room in Sweden that sometimes smells so strange. We have had three dudes living in here, and sometimes […]

As an Australian I have always pronounced it Aldi as “Al” in Al from Home Improvement. Almost “owl”. And we began the age […]

Kingdom Tourists i: Jazzcore

What kind of music do you like? – I asked a generic kid. I like most music, i like everything except rap and country – He or she answered. I’m fascinated by music, why people love certain styles, and why people hate certain styles, and the common thread it seems, are the most culturally deep. […]

Kingdom Tourists

If we explored the kingdom of God, got out of our comfort bubbles and championed others conclusions, seeing everything from someone elses shoes, maybe we would come to different convictions. Convictions that champion people as opposed to those that separate people with elitism. The above photo was taken from one of the strangest guesthouses i’ve ever stayed […]
