"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).

Consummed With Consumers As A Church

"Leadership gurus, frequently and authoritatively tell us that 20% of those who attend church are consumed with consumers.  That is that they spend their gifts and abilities on eighty percent of church attenders who simply show up once a week to watch. I for one am not in favour of propagating this." (Karl Ingersoll​​)
