A Wild Goose Resurrection – Jacob Kuntz

Last updated on: April 24, 2011 at 2:49 pm By wildgoosefestival

I was in Cairo on September 11th, attending a study-abroad program through a consortium of Christian Universities in the US. I was returning home following school, crossing over the Nile into the neighborhood where my apartment was located when I realized I was being stared at. But they weren’t staring the way people would typically stare at me, namely as a mild oddity or as one might look at a stray dog. The looks I was being given seemed oddly... Read more

What I Don't Want out of the Wild Goose Festival – Shane Claiborne

Last updated on: April 21, 2011 at 3:23 pm By wildgoosefestival

I am proud to have been part of this shin-dig from its inception… and am so excited to see it being born. Here are a few of my hopes for the ole Wild Goose Festival. I hope it is….. A celebration of art, creativity, and prophetic imagination A showcasing of fantastic Kingdom-minded projects and missional businesses (not just funnel cakes and university tables) A spectrum of diverse voices harmonizing without homogenizing – old and young, catholic and protestant (and other),...

Do I Deny the Resurrection? Hugh Hollowell

Last updated on: April 19, 2011 at 3:45 pm By wildgoosefestival

Occasionally I get emails demanding to know my stance on a particular piece of “historic orthodoxy”. People wonder about my view of hell, or who I think Jesus was or if I think there will be a second coming. Since the controversy over Rob Bell’s latest book (which happens to have the same name as our ministry), this has only increased. To tell you the truth, I think it is a bit funny. After all, I run a ministry for... Read more

Why the Goose is Unforgettable to Me: Jim Wallis

Last updated on: April 17, 2011 at 6:54 pm By jimwallis

My life changed when I went to a Christian festival in the UK in the 1990s. The same could happen to you if you come to the Christian music and social justice festival happening in the U.S. this summer — which I am about to tell you about! People often ask me how I met my English wife, Joy Carroll, who was one of the first women to be ordained in the Church of England. The answer always evokes good... Read more

Friends of the Goose

Last updated on: February 6, 2011 at 7:28 pm By wildgoosefestival

Carl McColman is a friend of Wild Goose. Just this week he posted: Like Greenbelt, Wild Goose will be a time for exploring the nexus between faith, art, and politics. Themes such as social justice, care for the environment, and community building will be woven together with inspirational music, art, and lectures, presenting a variety of viewpoints and artistic styles. Communal worship, family activities, theatre and film round out the mix. It promises to be a fabulous experience, and an... Read more

Behind the Mask of the American Prison System: Erin Parish & Steve Pavey

Last updated on: November 6, 2010 at 10:13 am By wildgoosefestival

Wild Goose exists at the intersection of justice and spirituality, and we’re opening spaces for reflection and action around key questions of the common good. Our first festival will have a specific emphasis on the criminal justice system itself. Erin Parish and Steve Pavey introduce this theme: When we think about social justice issues that matter, how often do we think about the justice system itself? To look in detail at the justice system in the United States is to open up a... Read more
