Francis Chan interview got me thinking...

Stumbled across this interview with Francis Chan today and I absolutely loved some of the thoughts and the 'new' direction he seems to be taking the church...

Artisans of Peace...

"Young people need help in order to integrate the vision into their own hearts and minds and to develop their own inner freedom and choices, learning little by little to be led inwardly by love, rather than from the outside, by rigid laws. They must be led to true community where they can become men and women of prayer and compassion, open to others and to the world, particularly to the poor, the oppressed, the lost and the vulnerable, and thus become artisans of peace." - Jean Vanier

Sundays Coming...

I Have seen this video quite a few times in the last couple of days and have shown a couple of friends and the response has been varied.

Joel's Crazy Tricks - Vol 3

Thrust into the world...

"We are prone time and time again to a morality that is more about observing rules & regulations than trusting in a living relationship of holiness that thrusts us into the world, rather than separates us from it" - Untamed, Alan and Deb Hirsch

Love this quote. We "GO" into the world because our relationship with Jesus compels us to go, thrusts us into the world that He loves. It's not out of religious expectation but out of Spirit driven compulsion...

John 4... Jesus "Had to GO", so do we. Our DNA is the same.

Bless ya as you go into all the world.
