"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).

Importance of Literacy In Mission!

"Scripture (in the form of 960 New Testaments and 371 complete Bibles) is available in 2,233 of the world's approximately 6,800 languages. ……. A complicating factor, however, is that 2 billion of the people in the world cannot read the language they speak, and so literacy efforts must be added to many translation projects. "

(Stan Guthrie, Missions in The Third Millennium, pg 68. 2000, paternoster Press, )
