Just Thinking Again?

Years ago, when blogging was new and cool, I started writing and people came together in a place to dream about what could be. And ended up hurting one another. And demonstrating in practice that it's much easier to think than it is to act.

And now, over a year since my last post, I'm thinking again.

I'm thinking about what it means to be a christian in a post-christian world.

I'm thinking about how the incarnate Son of God would react if He was placed by Father in the middle of this corporate driven model of an organization we call the church.

Bigger is not better.

The organization is not more important than the individual.

Church growth is not more important than discipleship.

Gifting is not more important than character.

Talk is cheap.

I'm going to find a way to live what I believe. It's no longer safe to dream about making a difference in France, if I can't make a difference in someone's life from my little apartment in Knightstown.

It's time. That's all I'm saying. It's time.

If no one else sees it, that's fine. I've lived alone in my head for a long, long time.

But it's no longer acceptable to find solace in dreams and thoughts. It's time to live.

That's what I think. How about you?
