One reason his warriors were so devastating in battle was their ambidextrous fighting abilities: &#8220;<em>They were able to shoot arrows or to sling stones with both the right and the left.&#8221;</em>&nbsp;&nbsp;If one hand was injured, they could quickly switch to the other.

Few institutions in modern society prepare men and women for holistic approaches to life. Careers in education, filmmaking, or business often demand a single-minded focus from an early age. Our parents and teachers recognize reward our dominant hand while we&#8217;re young and set us on a path that all but guarantees we become proficient in a very narrow range of human experiences.</h5>

Educational institutions, churches, and filmmaking communities all long to shape society for good, but often from drastically different perspectives. &nbsp;Our efforts to influence culture often lead to demonizing and scapegoating one another. The most striking lesson of Sue and my seven-year &#8216;missionary journey&#8217; to Hollywood is the depth of heartache many filmmakers carry due to the rejection and misunderstanding they&#8217;ve experienced in their interactions with faith communities and faith leaders.</h5>

Leaders adept at <em>culture-making</em>—whether in Hollywood or the Ivy League—are rarely trained in the disciplines of faith formation. Leaders skilled in <em>faith formation</em>—whether in a local congregation or an international relief agency—are rarely trained in the art of culture-making.

Men and women devoted to expertise in BOTH faith formation and culture-making.&nbsp;Professionals who “understand the times and know what to do,” namely,&nbsp;that&nbsp;<em>redefining faith and culture one story at a time</em>&nbsp;is our best hope for accomplishing our respective missions.</h5>

Not that I am an expert now, Yet, the new understanding of story I gained in Hollywood pushed my teaching in spiritual formation and theology (two disciplines rooted in story) to an entirely new level.

501<p data-start="455" data-end="735">We dream of fostering a movement of friends committed to leading lives of selfless service, shaped by both the life of the mind and the life of the Spirit. If you aspire to be as ambidextrous in life and leadership as Inigo Montoya was with his sword, you’re in the right place.</p>
