Creating A World that is Wholly Holy: Mike Morrell on the Wild Goose Festival

Last updated on: March 26, 2012 at 6:49 am By wildgoosefestival

For the past four years, I’ve watched the Wild Goose Festival grow from little more than an idea to a regular happening that thousands of people are looking forward to. Helping birth something from idea to full-bodied reality is a rare privilege! Last year, leading up to the festival, I wore many hats. This year, I’m getting to connect with dozens of like-hearted organizations who join together in partnership around our mutual passions for meaningful arts, restorative justice, and spirituality that heals.

Board President Mike King Recounts Wild Goose’s Journey

Last updated on: March 21, 2012 at 6:46 am By wildgoosefestival

[Guest Post by Mike King] Seven years ago, shortly after attending the Greenbelt Festival, I had an idea that I thought was original: North America needed something like Greenbelt. We needed a festival that allowed new ways of thinking, unleashed imaginative conversation, featured great art and artists, emphasized justice, embraced deep spirituality, nurtured an environment of diversity and hospitality and provided a place for lifelong friendships to form and grow. I spoke to several friends about my thoughts and soon... Read more

The Third Way: Frank Schaeffer Shares What Wild Goose Means to Him

Last updated on: March 16, 2012 at 5:20 am By wildgoosefestival

[Guest post by Frank Schaeffer] Forgive me but my love for the Wild Goose Festival is personal. To explain it, I have to tell you a bit of my own story. Until Gareth Higgins asked me to speak at Wild Goose in 2011, I hadn’t spoken at a major (or minor) evangelical or religious event for 25 years plus (with one exception of the Greenbelt Festival in the UK 5 years ago). Almost 30 years ago I found myself abandoning... Read more
