Thoughts on Living the Life Creative
For me the first step of this study has been to determine what the "Episcopal context" is. That meant finding the roots of the spirituality and seeing how we have grown from those roots. Along the way I was sure that I would find continuous threads that lead from then to now. So I've been... Continue Reading →
Still struggling with the audio. Not sure what the solution is but we'll keep working on it.
My name is Jay Phillippi and I've spent my life in and around the media. TV, Radio, the movies and more. I love 'em and I hate 'em and I always have an opinion. Call this The View From the Phlipside. I have absolutely no idea what to make of a sitcom that the folks... Continue Reading →

It is one of the best summations I think I've managed over the years about why young people should go to camp and why congregations should send them. (Some folks have... Continue Reading →
My name is Jay Phillippi and I've spent my life in and around the media. TV, Radio, the movies and more. I love 'em and I hate 'em and I always have an opinion. Call this The View From the Phlipside. Well the Oscars have been awarded which means it's Oscar analysis time! I will... Continue Reading →
This doesn't quite rise to my expectation of a "Reflection" for this process. Interesting to note after my feelings of being a little lost in the process to begin doing some reading on Benedict and his rule for a life in faith. You see Benedict believed that in order to have time for the important... Continue Reading →
Still haven't fixed all the audio problems with this process yet. I think I know what to do next but I needed to get this finished!
