			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51FlxCPxH7L._BO2,204,203,200_PIsitb-sticker-arrow-click,TopRight,35,-76_AA240_SH20_OU15_.jpg" alt="soul graffiti" style="float:left;" /> Although I am hoping to begin reviewing some books I have already read this upcoming year (sounds like a good resolution) I just finished Mark Scandrette&#8217;s book <a href="http://www.amazon.ca/Soul-Graffiti-Making-Life-Jesus/dp/0470276622/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;s=books&#038;qid=1230350471&#038;sr=8-1">Soul Graffiti</a>. I met Mark in 2007 at Soularize in the Bahamas and had a good chat about his life in San Francisco and some of the comparisons between their city and ours in Vancouver. I found our conversation very helpful, and reading this book reminded me of that cool conversation (<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/jordoncooper/1785887746/">seen here</a>). </p>
<p>I would say that his book, appears to be a collection of writings of Mark in his journey working with <a href="http://www.reimagine.org/">Reimagine</a>, and <a href="http://sevensf.org/">SEVEN</a>. Each chapter tells a great story, with a series of good reflection questions and experiments that you can actually practice. I hope to utilize this book in the future as a study with our <a href="http://theopenhouse.ca">community</a> in Vancouver.</p>
<p>It is hard to define this book, but i would say it focuses on a number of different experiments, stories and anecdotes of different peoples lives (90% in San Francisco) and how some people have responded in those instances. It is powerful to read real life instances and the actions people took in response to the action and the examples Mark gives of Jesus saying or doing similar things. </p>
<p>If you are planting an organic community in an urban city I believe you will find this book helpful. I give it a 3.5/5 on my CP scale just because I have read a few better books for church planting purposes and because it repeats itself a little, but at the end of the day if you read this book and truly attempt to do the things in the experiments you will be challenged and changed.</p>
