  1. "The bad can be saved if they are humble. The proud cannot be saved no matter how good they are." - @BrianZahnd
  2. And no, @BrianZahnd is not preaching "The Gospel According to Bob & Larry." The title of his message is "The Onion."
  3. No After Party movie tonight at WOLC, but Friday night church is still on. You don't want to miss tonight's sermon inspired by a vegetable!
  4. You must be able to lead your own heart before you are able to lead others. Character > competency.
  5. We bought our house in St. Joe one year ago today. What a year it has been! instagr.am/p/LDvF2YvINm/
  6. Just finished a 4 mile run (or should I say swim!) with Jenni in the 125% humidity. instagr.am/p/LB0LekvIP-/
  7. @davidortinau Gross, but true. When Dylan (our two yr old) gets upset he: cries, drools, & his nose starts running...all at the same time!
  8. @davidortinau Funny. I got home last night & our iPad keyboard had cheese cracker crumbs & some strange sticky substance on it. Apple juice?
  9. @JimVining Those who put (their real!) hope is militaristic nationalism will find Hauerwas' proposal to be down right frightening.
  10. “@JimVining: About to hear Stanley Hauerwas for the first time. Excited ... maybe a little afraid.” / Be afraid. Be very afraid.
  11. The hope we have in times of struggle is not that "we can make it," but that God's grace is sufficient.
  12. Despite popular opinion, God will at times give us more than we can handle, so we learn to depend on him.
  13. Winning the White House and Losing Our Souls patheos.com/Progressive-Ch… via @Patheos
  14. "The chief political concern of the Bible is to worship God truly." - Stanley Hauerwas
  15. @gpackiam I loved Hauerwas' response, because it was somewhat unexpected. It is concise and true to his high ecclesiology.
  16. Q: What is the real evidence that a man or woman has received the baptism with the Holy Ghost? A: Divine love, which is charity.- W. Seymour
  17. From "The Apostolic Faith" newsletter January 1908 written by William Seymour instagr.am/p/K8bh4XvICo/
  18. You can fix anything with duct tape...including blisters. instagr.am/p/K6ZKhWvIFV/
  19. Just ran 4.4 miles in 44:44. The only thing that could have made that stranger is if I would have done it on April 4th. #fb
