There are multiple ways to share the A Deacon’s Musing blogs. One way is to organise them based upon such categories as Fiction, Poetry and Visual. Another way is to sort them around Features such as Feather’s Fall, TEDx, The Story of Then or Vignettes, I suspect there is no perfect way to do it. Each hopefully speaks to a particular reader of seeker’s interest or however the muse might be whispering upon each visit. An archive, therefore, feels like an appropriate way to further share these various reflections. I hope, then, that this page proves as one additional way to further engage and create conversation!

Vignette|The Story of Then
This particular Vignette arises as a way to use art – literature – to explore my PhD project with the Taos Institute and Tilburg University (Humanities), which I completed in 2020. Each one of these PhD vignettes uses autoethnography, through the art of story-telling, to better understand my connexion to the project, From Suspicion to Reparation through a Relational Practical Theology: Transforming The United Church of Canada.
