The poet, artist, activist and Trappist monk Thomas Merton once wished that he could figure out a way to tell people that "they are all walking around shining like the sun." He wanted to unlock in each person, and across significant differences, a sense of belovedness and shared humanity. In this workshop, we will explore together various practices of intergenerational communal art-making that might enable us to break down unhelpful barriers between generations, between people with varying abilities, and between action and contemplation. Great option for those who are looking for ways to connect youth the "graying" church and community.

and assistant professor of practical theology at Louisville Presbyterian Theological

Seminary. He directs the seminary's Sun-Walking Fellowship, an initiative that seeks to encourage intergenerational art-making in congregations.

He and his wife Sarah have their hands blessedly full raising two precocious children.
