Forerunner Projects
1. The Forerunner Film Festival and Awards – Forerunners respond to vision and modeling and the Forerunner Film Festival will tell stories of forerunners and social entrepreneurs who have made significant contributions to society. Our focus is on youth because it is our most prudent investment. High school and college age students will be targeted as the audience for this week long celebration of the forerunner spirit. The festival culminates with the Forerunner Awards presentation to acknowledge exceptional examples of leadership, innovation and creativity in building and reforming society.

2. Wisdom-Radio is a weekly 30 minute radio program featuring inspiring stories of exemplary forerunners who contend for a better world in every area of society. The program begins with a first person narrative account focusing on the birth of an idea and its development through to fruition of the project. Wisdom engages storytellers from every walk of life who have pioneered projects, expanded the boundaries of humanity through innovation, reformed systems and society to enhance the quality of our lives. It engages artists, performers and musicians who have enriched us with beauty and creativity, and those who have inspired us through their uncompromising stand for truth, justice and compassion for the weak and the poor.
To hear a demo of the program visit www.wisdom-radio.com

3. Web Site(s), Newsletter, Blog is an online opportunity for forerunners to network, learn, be encouraged, access resources and ask questions. An e-Newsletter and Blog will provide attendees with the opportunity to stay connected and find resources to assist them in their journey.

4. Seminars and Events: the Forerunner Project has developed several seminars on the topic of giftedness and how to discover and live your “Authentic Life”. These are presented in schools, churches, and through community groups. The seminars help individuals in any stage of their life to discover their talents, strengths and motivations, and will encourage them to become more fully engaged in their occupation and community.

    • Could The World Do The Unthinkable? April 21, 2012
      I have been producing this radio program for a  year and I have learned a lot. One of the things I have learned about “change” is that some things have to be modeled before they gain enough credibility to get wide acceptance. Many people need to “see” something before they “get it”. In other words, […]

    • That’s Not Science! March 26, 2012
      The problem with being a forerunner is that we don’t accept most of what we are told. We have to see for ourselves. This may arise from having experienced fraudulent authority in the past or from realizing that most of what is wrong with the world is their doing. In the past 50 years, science […]

    • Trying to Answer One of the Tough Questions February 27, 2012
      A few days ago I had lunch with a dear friend from Costa Rica. He was born and raised in Central American culture and of course loved Futbol (soccer). As the conversation developed, I couldn’t help make the comparison between Latin America’s love for their game and Canadians’ love for hockey. To my surprise, he […]

    • Is Capitalism Dead? February 13, 2012
      Winston Churchill is purported to have said: “Capitalism is not the best system, but it is the best so far.” The quote seemed out of character for someone who was openly critical of a system so given to greed and corruption. Fact is, he actually said this about democracy, not capitalism – the capitalists “borrowed” […]

    • How to Make 2012 the Best Year Ever! January 13, 2012
      One of the most pleasant tasks I perform for the Forerunner Film Festival is to review new films. I am not sure how I was introduced to the film “Crossing”, but it was a docu-drama which challenged and stirred more emotion that any of the hundreds of films I had reviewed. The setting is North […]

    • RIM From 10,000 Feet December 1, 2011
      Inventors always want to protect their ideas so that only they can capitalize on them; however, that may be misguided. In the history of recent technology, being the “first in” has proven to be of no advantage – possibly even a disadvantage. At one time, there was a very good operating system called CPM that […]

    • Retire With Purpose October 17, 2011
      Recently a friend of mine retired from his job as an editor at the CBC. He had worked there for more than 30 years dodging layoffs and cutbacks to complete a full tenure at the Corporation. In fact, Mark worked for an additional 3 years beyond the required service even though he was ready in […]

    • An Anonymous Commentor wrote this skillful description of our world. October 16, 2011
      I had to publish this since it was so well said….. “Never before has the global financial system been so interlinked and integrated, which means that problems in one part of the world are capable of causing severe stress almost everywhere else. ” That’s globalism for you, folks. That’s what the globalists have forced upon […]

    • On October 6th……. September 15, 2011
      “The arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and assistance to foreign hands should be curtailed, lest Rome fall.” Cicero  – 55 BC Recently a friend from San Diego sent me a similar quote about the state of Rome in the era of Cicero. A little research revealed that the original quote (as shown […]

    • Is There Religious Freedom in Canada?? August 15, 2011
      Recently, I inquired about posting a film screening notice at the Stanley Park Community Centre. The attendant aggressively questioned if the film was religious (I gave her no reason to believe it was). I almost had to “swear an oath” that there was no religious content in the film before she would post the flyer […]
