In April 2010, Dan Filbin, the director of the forthcoming documentary film The Tightrope, interviewed Craig. A short video clip of the interview, in which Craig talks about personal engagement and creating a circle of care for someone experiencing mental illness, is available online.

Upcoming Events

JUNE 20 – SEPT. 9, 2010: SERMON SERIES

“Living, Learning, & Loving”  Craig is currently preaching a series of sermons on this theme at Prospect Church in Seattle.

Each sermon explores a basic aspect of faith—how we experience God in our lives, how we develop and grow our spiritual capacity, and how we love and care for one another. What ties this all together is an appreciation of our richness and complexity as persons. In his work as a chaplain, Craig has seen how fragile and vulnerable we can be and how confused and disturbed our lives can become. But he has also seen what incredible potential and gifts we each have.

In this series of sermons, Craig celebrates our spiritual capacities—the possibilities we have individually and together to live fully, learn deeply, and become whole.
