"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).

Onlt Professionnels Can Guide Faith Or We Become Wacos

"There seems to be this notion that knowing God is a special field of expertise, and ”professionals" are needed to sort through the complexities of the Bible and bring order and organization to God's work. Left to ordinary people, who knows what kind of heresy, chaos, and anarchy would ensue."
