"stories of our city" is a worldwide project to cultivate community and understanding.

Which War

"Which war?" is a common phrase that you hear in conversation in Beirut. A sad but true fact of living in a country with a very fragile peace. Ronnie tells the story of trying to distinguish between the multiple wars in Lebanon and how this effects all levels of society.

3 days in the doorway

Yara shares her story of getting money for a NGO project working with Palestinian kids here in Lebanon. 

Luanatic

Luana agreed to tell the story of how she opened the space- the LUANATIC Creative Workshop. She was painting during the interview, her partner was making T-shirts, art was taking shape all around us.
I hope you enjoy this story from the creative workshop- it sheds light on the creative/arts scene here in Beirut.

no one called my name

She comes into my house smiling.  She is so happy to be able to come and help me with my Arabic.  Even though her life has been harder than I could ever imagine, she keeps smiling.
This week's story comes from Fatima* - she tells of life in an orphanage in south Lebanon and how she met her mom for the first time at age 16.
*name changed to protect her as she tells us her story
running time 5:29 min.

childhood memories

Abbas wanted to share his story- and he had all of these great stories from when he was a kid.  Here are a few of the stories that he shared.

Acronyms

How funny is it that many of us are returning back to Acronyms. I grew up in a Acronym society, Acronyms in sunday school, Acronyms in elementary school and Acronyms on the football field. I got so sick of the reduction of everything done to Acronyms that I stopped using them or talking about them. Then I meet Tracy... the queen of Acronyms. "WT", "MIC", "PC"...I realized that we still use them and in many ways we are moving even more to a simplistic culture as we learn to take ideas and events… Continue

North End block party



Wow, what an awesome time we had at the block party. About 100 folks gathered to have fun in the sun and throw down the snow cones like it was 1999. This corner was madness between the jumper and the snow cone and about 30 kids (strung out on snow cones) running around and around… Continue

TM podcast

Here is a link to some of the last sermons from Trademark church.
We invite you to listen and join our community in a tangible way.

dialogue with us in the teaching. It might not be the normal sermon format but we still
want to invite you to listen and take part in what is going on in Boise.

In the war

This last month or so has been war. War in our house, war in our community and war in our church. I am not going to pretend that it's been easy or that some of it has not come from me, my selfish sinful heart. God is continuing to prune me, and make me more like Jesus. He is Transforming my family for the mission and keeping us in repentance. However, this last month has been more than just transformation, it has been war. I feel as if I am being hunted, as if the enemy has me, my family and TM… Continue

Boise sounds fun but my wife thinks it is too far. Kay Dee thinks North Carolina is too far away. We are actually enjoying Williamsburg
right now. It has enough of the small town feel but not exactly a small town. I have considered Boise but Kay Dee won't hear it.

Hey, It was hard. The biggest thing that we dealt with was the trauma. I now know that because of what i have been through, I am not crazy, just dealing with the trauma of loosing Rob. It's hard to deal with, but I have to to begin to heal. We miss you guys so much and wish we could have spent more time together. Hoping things are good with you guys too!!! Love you
