“Through personal storytelling, biblical preaching, and literally getting us out of the church and into a mosque, Andy walked alongside our church with the question, “Compelled by God’s love, what does it mean to love our Muslim neighbor?” Wise, gentle, and prophetic, Andy doesn’t just talk about peacemaking–he lives it.”

Lay Church Leader
“Andy spent a weekend at our church recently speaking about his bridge building relationships with Muslims. This approach resonates in contrast with so much media attention to extremists. It was a new message for a lot of our members, but they seemed willing to listen and be open because of Andy’s gentle and non-threatening presence. Now we can discuss this topic more freely and see our Muslim neighbors in a new light, building friendships as God leads.”

“We recognize you as an agent of change for reconciliation and an influential community leader. We’d like to invite you to influence the next generation of community leaders here at Seattle Pacific University.”
Pastor
“Andy Larsen recently gave a presentation and engaged our congregation around the question, “Who is our neighbor?” His knowledge and experience as a bridge-builder and peacemaker was evident as he encouraged us to look outside our normal circles of friendships. Andy is well-suited for this ministry as he travels effortlessly between Muslim and Christian communities and invites us to do the same.”

Andrew…was up in Rocky Mountain National Park with relatives yesterday, and told them about your taking pictures with that international group some years ago. Your God-honoring talent is amazing…I am grateful for all you do with the heart you have for others.
I do have a business question for you. As we develop a workshop on whole-life mentoring, what might be the proper way to use some of your work in our presentations? What would be the cost? What would be the licensing arrangements on use? If any of this is a possibility, then how would I access your catalog of pictures/images?
This is only an exploration. But, you pictures are easily some of the finest I have seen. If this does not work…sincerely, not a problem…we remain friends.
…blessings abundant,
Wes
