A few of my friends I’d like for you to get to know as well. – Jodi
A New Kind of Conversation
A new type of book - a "blog book," written on-line - that my husband, Dr. Myron Penner has conceived (along with Hunter Barnes) and is managing. This blog-book will discuss what a postmodern evangelical faith looks like. The blog format will make it possible to allow you the reader, to participate in the writing of both the blog and the eventual published book to follow by Paternoster. Be a part of this experiment in conversation by adding your voice to the discussion. It is a postmodern way to dialogue about our Faith and Practice today. (He's kind of smart, I think) Look it up if you're into philosophy and theology, epistimology and all that other good stuff....

EarReverent Music
This is music close to my heart. I have very close friendships with Scott Baker and also Chad Sundin, who have written and produced many of these songs. I have also helped arrange the vocals of many of the songs on these albums.
OperaFestival di Roma
I had the priveledge of doing a lead role for Operafestival di Roma in Rome and Verona in 2002 for Mozart's opera, Don Giovanni. It was a wonderful summer and I reccomend it to any young artist going into opera as a career.
Liberty University
My alma mater- My mentor, Dr. Wayne Kompelien, is still there at the Music Department. He is a wonderful teacher with a heart of gold and a real understanding of how a christian can also be a professional musician and performer. Anyone reading this from the Payroll office at Liberty should give him a raise!

I have been adjunct teching at Rosebud for 3 years and it is always an inspiring place. For a small hamlet in the prairies, I am always amazed at the artistry and ingenuity that goes on.
Hunter Barnes
