A few links and items of interest: - interesting article in Fast Company on connecting to multi-cultural youth through mobile platforms.

- One of the best written books I've read in the last 10 years- As We Forgive, by Catherine Claire Larson, documenting stories of reconciliation from the Rwandan genocide.

- The One Prayer campaign now is in the third week of four. 1900 churches and over 1 million in attendance represented by this global initiative of unity and prayer in the Church. We participated at 12Stone this morning with Craig Groeschel on video.

- If you are a songwriter or musician, Wednesday, July 1 is the deadline for submitting a song for the Catalyst Music Project. More details on the site.

- Good article in TIME on how Twitter is changing the way we live.

- USA goes down to Brazil in the finals of the Confederation Cup, 3-2. Led 2-0 early in the first half. Valiant effort by the home team. Not a big soccer fan, but always cheer for the team wearing the USA jersey, no matter what the sport. We'll see if this changes the landscape of soccer in the USA. Probably not.

- Check out this quick video of Catalyst's very own Jason Haynes tearing it up, prom 1987 style. Nice!
