"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).

Church Buildings Steal Our Devotion.

"In Church 3.0, Neil mentions three consistent roadblocks to church multiplication and reproduction: buildings, budgets, and big shots.-

Buildings are not bad or wrong; they are simply not alive and therefore cannot reproduce. Buildings usually cost an exorbitant amount of money to purchase and even more to maintain. But perhaps the worst part about buildings is that they claim our love and ultimately our devotion. They anchor us in one place and become missional black holes."
(Church Transfusion. Neil Cole)
