About

GENERATE exists as a forum to retell the stories of the grassroots communities and individuals who are finding emerging and alternative means of following God in the Way of Jesus. We hope to create an artifact of this historical conversation. These stories will be transmitted through narrative, works of visual art, documented performances, verse, fiction, non-fiction, essays, and interviews.

We/you are the conversation; our art, our lives, our hopes and failures all meet up with God’s approaching dreams for creation. We converse, and in doing so, spread the news that we are not alone—that joy is found in our generative friendship. GENERATE seeks to communicate the hope we find in Kingdom living, the hope we have in living the Way, the hope that is present in the highest highs and the lowest lows of daily life.

We are a grassroots-organized, independent publication. Everyone who works on GENERATE is a volunteer and we are functioning on a cash-only basis. In many ways, GENERATE is an organic business – as such it will experience the birth > growth > and eventual death cycle of all living things.  We only seek to be good stewards of this project for as long as it can serve the Conversation.
