ILLUMINATED IMAGINATION

I would really love to get your feedback on this. A friend of mine named Shane has an organization called Dreamers of the Day in Ireland. He posted a recent blog that I feel really deserves some exploration. With his permission, I am posting it here. We are very interested in your thoughts.

ILLUMINATED IMAGINATION
by Shane Tucker of www.dreamtoday.org

For about a year now I've been contemplating the role of imagination in the role of a Christian. There have been various insights and encouragements to help me along the way with this. Below I'll lay out the headings that may form the content of my next article. Please comment and offer any insights you may have on this/these issues, or experiences you have had that may shed some light on the illuminated imagination. Of course, you'll be given credit in the next article if I rely on a fresh insight you've shared. ;-) Without further adieu...

*Art (broadly speaking) as Stimulation for Imagination
*Imagination as an Agent for Personal/Spiritual Growth
*Imagination as a Key to Engaging in God's Activity
*Imagination as a Catalyst for a Life of Service
*Imagination as a Cornerstone for Cultural Change
*Positive Uses for Imagination in a Life of Faith
