"Creativity: Touching the Divine" brings together artists and non-artists who have experienced the joyful tandem of spirituality and creativity. Viewers are inspired to rethink the possibility for creativity in their own lives, regardless of their circumstances or abilities. "Being creative means to develop the skill to listen, to silence the ego, and to let creativity come from the soul rather than the self," comments Thomas Moore, author of the best-selling Care of the Soul. Joining him are glass harpist Jamey Turner, who seeks the extraordinary in the ordinary; and the late Madeleine L''Engle, who penned the young adult classic, A Wrinkle in Time; and Urban Family Institute founder Kent Amos of Washington, D.C., who lives the African axiom, "It takes a whole village to raise a child."

That''s what The University of St. Thomas in Minneapolis took when it commissioned Mark Balma to create a fresco – a painting on wet lime plaster – for the vaulted atrium ceiling of its downtown campus and graduate school.  The subject: the seven virtues as cited by the medieval philosopher Thomas Aquinas.  But how do you depict these ancient attributes in today''s multi-cultural world?  Fresco is an enlightening and challenging journey – for both the artist and the viewer.

Connecting Threads gives an overview of how threads of sharing and service connect when members of US churches (in this case the United Church of Christ and the Christian Church, Disciples of Christ) work together with global partners. Words and music tell their stories of faith in five regions: Africa, Europe and the Middle East, Southern Asia, East Asia and the Pacific, and Latin America and the Caribbean. Mission personnel and global partners from around the world discuss the role the church plays in health and wellness, leadership development, economic support, education, and issues related to access to natural resources.

The youth of today are now, more than ever, often regarded as the source of society''s challenges and deficits. Underage drinking, drugs and violence are only a few examples of what have become synonymous with the word "youth". On the top of such a negative perception of this vibrant segment of our society, American Muslim youth have to cope with other stereotypes such as terrorism and ''un-Americanism''.
