About the Book
Life, the decisions and challenges we face concerning work, recreation, money, relationships, and the future can become complex and overwhelming. But they don't have to be.
the elemental life uses the four ancient elements of earth, water, fire, and wind to take a fresh look at historic biblical Christianity. In the process, the elemental life offers a different way of looking at the world around you ... a way that provides clarity in the midst of chaos, speaks words of forgiveness when confronted by failure, makes the most of the struggles of life, and gives meaning to the mundane moments of your everyday experience.
It's not easy, but it is elemental. Find a friend and talk, challenge, encourage, and discover together. Get back to the elemental life.
Because the book was written to prompt discussion, it is combined with a website (http://theelementallife.com) that gives readers an opportunity to ask the author questions, review other questions and answers, and listen to a weekly podcast that expands on the ideas presented in the book.

Between the wedding and Robbie's birth, Joe and Anita spent three years in St. Louis, Missouri so Joe could attend Concordia Seminary.

He helped cast the vision for the restart of an urban congregation near the Saint Louis University Medical Campus and worked at Lutheran Hour Ministries where he developed the online community www.re-yourlife.com. Seminary concluded with an internship at Peace with Christ Lutheran Church in Aurora, CO, who then called him to plant Genesis. Joe was ordained on July 16, 2006.
Joe shares his thoughts on faith, family, ministry, and life at his personal blog, www.joeburnham.com.
