"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).

People-less Bibles. Bible Translation Issues!

“Those in the ministry of Bible Translation commonly talk of Bible-less peoples. Regrettably, it sometimes happens that there are also “People-less Bibles,” newly translated scriptures that is available but not used. In some instances the neglected Bibles may be the result of key church and mission leaders who were not involved in envisioning what was needed and how the need could best be met.”
