"When you begin to think outside the box, you often become some other "leaders" lousy follower. That usually costs something" (Andy Rayner)

"Our guardian angels are bored." (Mike Foster)

It's where I feel I'm at these days. “In the second half of life, it is good just to be a part of the general dance. We do not have to stand out, make defining moves, or be better than anyone else on the dance floor. Life is more participatory than assertive, and there is no need for strong or further self-definition” (Falling Upward. Richard Rohr.120).

Dunkin Donuts & The Jesus Plague- Unreached People Groups At our Door!

"One of the reasons Christians find it uncomfortable even to ask God if they should be missionaries is that they’ve never been good at spreading the Jesus plague. They like to cheer the plague spreaders to foreign shores, but please don’t ask them to spread it to the folks next door. They get excited about an outbreak of the Jesus plague in Mauritania, but get mad when the Muslims take over their local Dunkin’ Donuts shop."

(Final Analysis, A decade of Commentary on the church and world missions, Jim Reapsome, EMIS pg 43) Huuuuuummmmmm?
