A Tale of Two War Movies

In the wake of the release of artificial intelligence, questions about the nature of technology, its impact on our daily lives, and our role in its uses and abuses have become a more pressing question than perhaps ever before. At the root of these discussions is a more fundamental question: What is technology? In this first lecture in a two-part series, originally delivered in front of a live audience at L'Abri Fellowship in England, Andy Patton offers insights towards a Christian perspective on technology.

Building community is harder than most of us expected. How do you find the time? What if nobody comes? How do you move beyond small talk into real friendship?

In this Community & Hospitality Leader Training session, Andy Patton shares practical ideas for building healthy, lasting community right where you are. He talks about hospitality, conflict, vulnerability, and why starting small is usually the best place to begin.

How to Build Community: A Training for Community Leaders

Every artist knows the feeling: the exhilarating spark of a new idea followed by the sinking realization that bringing it to life is much harder than imagined. Illustrator, author, and professor John Hendrix joins Andy Patton to explore what he calls "the Pit of Despair"—that universal stage of the creative process where excitement gives way to doubt, frustration, and the temptation to quit.

Drawing from years of teaching artists, creating award-winning books, and wrestling through his own projects, John explains why struggle isn't evidence that you're failing—it's evidence that you're making something real. Together, Andy and John discuss why great art seems effortless only after it's finished, how community helps us climb out of creative despair, why good work demands persistence, and how learning to enjoy the process can transform the way we create.

Whether you're a writer, musician, painter, entrepreneur, student, or simply trying to bring an idea into the world, this conversation offers a hopeful reminder: the pit of despair isn't a sign you're on the wrong path. It's part of the journey.
