"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).

When Evangelism Turns People In To A Project

When our evangelism and discipleship become part of participation in some church program... we have conditions and time lines ... we do it thursday nights and onlt for a few months, and onktbwith those who are ready to jump our evangelism or discipleship hoops as was pre-planned and mapped out in the "training".

"If I'm going to get there, I'm going to need some help from a friend or two without conditions and time lines."
(Jim Palmer. Divine Nobodies : Shedding Religion To Find God - And the unlikely people who help you.)
