Youth Ministry News

Westword, a popular left leaning newspaper along the frontrange of Colorado, did a headline news story on me and Dare 2 Share that came out this week. To be honest I was kind of freaked out in the weeks leading up to the story. I was nervous that maybe the article would paint a slanted picture of what we’re all about. But now that I’ve read the article I’m actually pretty pleased with it.

Jessica Centers, the reporter who interviewed a bunch of us (my good friend Rick Long who now pastors Grace Church where I used to preach, Emma the Buddhist from GOSPEL Journey Maui, Zane, my uncle Jack, my lovely wife and a few others) did a great job of capturing my heart and the mission of Dare 2 Share. I love the tagline to the online edition of Westword,

“Greg Stier is raising up an army of adolescents to save your soul”

You bet I am. All of us at Dare 2 Share are!

There were a few things I cringed at. Sometimes when three hours worth of interviews are chopped up it doesn’t communicate as intended. But overall I think Jessica did a solid, pretty stinking unbiased job of reporting who, what and why we are.

Check it out for yourself here. But be warned there are a few f bombs and such (no, not from me!) Let me know what you think of the article.

Time for our annual Diocesan Camp which I'm really looking forward to and all the important elements are in place. It's going to be hard work today collecting all the equipment together and setting up BUT as ever the 'Solar powered' swimming pool will be a great place to chill out!

Prayers for the camp appreciated :-)

Having only just discovered that my minimalist approach to fuel use has a name, i.e Hypermiling, I was further amazed to find there's a mass of information, discussion and data online. In fact, it's mahoosive, less is the new more! Anyway (and as I was asked, ... genuinely) these are the strategies that I'd worked out and played with for visiting the pumps less often.

But in order not to bore you, only those who click on 'continue' will read an essay exploring useful but dull anorakdom.
