Greenbelt

Faith/arts collision

I'm heading in to London for the Greenbelt brainstorming session. It's the biggest planning meeting for the festival, where we gather perhaps a hundred visionaries in one room and ask them to dream. It's always a surprising but exhausting time.

And I'm reading as I travel. I'm reading a paper for tomorrow's EGM. One phrase has leapt off the screen at me. It's a phrase I've heard many times before, but for some reason it resonates louder than usual today.

Greenbelt is a place where Christianity and the arts collide

So tonight we dream up a festival: a collection of collisions, and places to openly discuss resolutions.
