VISION AND MISSION

ALL DREAMS SEEM AUDACIOUS AT FIRST.

Today's biggest challenges are not cultural decay, social disunity, poverty, racism, or human trafficking. While these realities are disheartening and disastrous, they remain mere symptoms of deeper rooted causes. That is why, if we truly want to rid ourselves of these horrid realities, we must attended to their roots. Moreover, if we truly want thriving and humane cultures then merely pulling our cultural weeds is also not enough and why we ought to desire cultivating redemption, the unity of human diversity, and human flourishing in their place.

Seeing the magnitude of this task, however, many say the future of humanity is dire. But we say, that can be true only insofar as people choose to believe it. In contrast, the degree to which we seek truth, affirm human dignity, develop our unique talents, maximize our creativity, and empower others to do the same, is the degree to which there is extraordinary hope to foster vibrant and humane cultures and subcultures. And Flume is being developed to help ensure that hope is realized.

VISION

Flume sees an increasingly dignified world teeming with the good, true, and beautiful; and a flourishing human race with the capacity, clarity, and creativity to steward and enjoy it forever.

MISSION

Flume exists to be a conduit of clarity, creativity, and redemption; to confront dehumanization and cultural disunity; and to cultivate in their place, cultures teeming with meaning, human dignity, human flourishing, the unity of human diversity, and the good, true, and beautiful.

Through a more detailed prism, this is to say, the mission of Flume is to:

  1. Counter the narratives of narcissism and nihilism with visions of clarity, meaning, truth, optimism, and hope.

  2. Advocate for a highly positive, dignified, and holistic view of the human person in the public square and every human institution; including a humane and ontologically coherent view of human diversity.

  3. Foster redemption by helping resolve, remedy, and restore the vast stories of injustices and dehumanization throughout today’s contemporary world and human history.

  4. Foster humane discourse in the public square that both honors human variation and seeks truth above all else.

  5. Equip and empower global citizens and citizens of the Free World to be good stewards of the freedoms they have, and using them to possess, share, and foster the good, true, and beautiful.

  6. Help hurting individuals, families, and communities find meaning, healing, redemption, and flourishing in and through their suffering.

  7. Help the West and world nonviolently heal its many divisions by fostering the natural fusing of the many false dichotomies that have fractured it.

  8. Foster insightful, organic, and bottoms-up solutions to personal, organizational, social, and global challenges.

  9. Foster the capacity in leadership to connect the qualitative, quantitative, communicative, and humane components into their identity, brand, services, and supply chains.

  10. Foster a humane love for leaning, language, reading, writing, storytelling, the arts, wellness, and cross-cultural experiences.
