"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).

Bedridden Christianity

"Our ancestors’ zeal for God has given way to another kind of zeal: a zeal to seek immunity from life’s prosecutions. We are more concerned about the question “what are your securities?” than the question “what are your ministries?” Our pews are occupied by people who want to be moved, but who don’t want to move. It is not just a few people who are bedridden all of their lives—we are becoming a church of, for, and by the bedridden and beached."
