This morning Darryl Brown gave me a copy of Geez magazine. He’s the art director for this new venture. When I first heard about it, I liked the way it was described and was surprised to discover I know someone who is involved. It is 96 pages that use illustration generously. “Geez is your story of experiments with truth. Because it’s time we untangle the narratives of faith from the fundamentalists, pious self-helpers and religio-profiteers. And let’s do it with holy mischief rather than ideological firepower.” The description on page four goes on to say “We’ll explore the point at which word, action and image intersect, and then ignite. . . . We’ve set up camp in the outback of the spiritual commons. A bustling spot for the over-churched, out-churched, un-churched and maybe even the un-churchable. A location just beyond boring bitterness. A place for wannabe contemplatives, front-line world-changers and restless cranks.”
