The promptWe have always believed that college is about becoming who you’re meant to be. In part, this comes from opened doors and new opportunities that weren’t possible before the educational process of earning a degree. The part we don’t want to miss in this becoming process however, is how friends and community shape us. They take us farther and deeper into who we are meant to become, and without them we are diminished. The worship of speed and convenience leave us lonely and lessened. As you reflect, we hope that this proverb might take you farther rather than faster, and that as you go with friends you might become who you are meant to be.
We are a Christain organization who believes that the greatest becoming we can grow into is becoming who Jesus meant for us to be. You do not have to agree with that to participate, and all submissions will not be evaluated on that criteria. We just want to be transparent with who we are, as we invite you to share who you are becoming with us through this contest. It is our hope that this prompt would spark your imagination. If you need some direction, consider the steps below: 1. Read the prompt 2. Reflect --consider journaling, imagining, taking a walk 3. Respond --create your art inspired by the prompt We look forward to receiving your entry! THE DEADLINE: October 26th, 2020 7:00PM EST Note: Some of the verbiage and rules for this challenge have been inspired & borrowed from Be Still Media. Learn more here. |
