a couple of days ago i got a chance to sit around for a few hours at greyhouse coffee and supply co...the coffee shop that is owned and operated by the campus house at purdue.
it was nothing short of an incredibly inspiring and energizing time. to be in a creative atmosphere like that is so exciting for me.
i feel more and more drawn all the time to the idea of restoring the shalom of God to the world...and that is exactly what i feel like is happening at greyhouse. i get really intrigued and really excited about being part of something similar to that at some point in this journey that God has me on.
i don't know that it would have to be a coffee shop (though i would absolutely love for it to be)...i was talking with a student the other day about the idea of creating an art studio type of a place to attract art students and folks of that type to come to. i don't know for sure what it might be...but i certainly know that i am very attracted to the idea of thinking about it and dreaming about the possibilities.
one thing that i am feeling a need to think through with this type of idea here at ucm is just simply the idea of what would work at this type of a university. at this size university and in this size of a town. i am not exactly sure...but i certainly want to be dreaming about it for sure.
i must confess and admit that i don't feel like cailyn and i spend nearly enough time dreaming and more than that, praying, about ideas and possibilities like these. i want very much to be living in and making the most of today...but i also want to be thinking about dreaming about and most importantly praying about what God's plan might include for us in the future.
