Destination Imagination
New Wineskins for a New Day

Connecticut Conference
141st Annual Meeting
May 10, 2008
South Congregational UCC-Middletown, CT

Mark 2:22
Jesus said…
No one puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins, and the wine is lost, and so are the skins; but one puts new wine into fresh wineskins.

Or…
You can’t put the Spirit in a box—its transformative power will blow out the walls making the box useless, and the Spirit will arise elsewhere; so be flexible and create a new spacious imagination for the Spirit.
