Hey Crash-ers,
When our kids were little, they watched a lot of “Bob the Builder” (stick with me). He used the catchphrase “REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE” a lot. It was the show’s way of advocating for a more sustainable way of life. So as a tip of the hat to Bob and our encouragement to the simple life, we bring you this week’s Rapid 5.

A SIMPLE LIFE - FARM-TO-TABLE SPIRITUALITY
Paul encourages the Thessalonians to live a quiet and simple life in 1 Thessalonians 4, and it struck a chord with me - we are never going to be able to fully retreat from the way that the world is, the events, schedules, raising kids, going to uni, running teams and working…. they are part of life… but I am certain that we can tweak how we think and act in order to create lives that are simple and beautiful. Listen to this post here … lets's chat.
RECYCLING VINTAGE TYPEWRITERS
What do you do with something when it’s past its prime? I’d usually throw it away. But these artists take a better approach. This is pretty amazing - a recycling project for old typewriters that may get your thinking on a whole other tangent
