Artigennetos - or as I like to think of it - arty.genny.toes - is a blog just born, kind of like me. Chronologically, I'm a long way down the road from my physical birth date, but I am a spiritual new creation, only about four years old at this point. I'm living proof that God does have a sense of humor. He took a fifty-something card carrying liberal new-age body worker and artist and turned her into a politically independent, born again administrative assistant to the teaching pastor of an evangelical Southern Baptist mini-mega church. All because I asked Him to "allow me to have more impact and influence and leave a positive legacy in this world". Be careful what you pray for! My artistic tendencies and tree-hugging, nature-loving inclinations survived this radical transition. Mostly my pre-cosmic shift friends think I've lost my mind (that is, the ones who haven't abandoned me), which I totally understand, since I recently shared the same attitudes and ideas about the nature of our world.
I officially declare I have not lost my mind, but I am yearning to lose my selfish, navel-gazing nature in Christ.
