“The chief biblical analogy for baptism is not the water that washes but the flood that drowns. Discipleship is more than turning over a new leaf. It is more fitful and disorderly than gradual moral formation. Nothing less than daily, often painful, lifelong death will do. So Paul seems to know not whether to call what happened to him on the Damascus Road “birth” or “death” - it felt like both at the same time.”
~ William Willimon from Bread and Wine: Readings for Lent and Easter (via taidochino)

50/50: Brothers and Sisters, Lately I have been thinking a whole lot about...
Read this post from a good buddy of mine on what it means to have a solid community of people around you who love and encourage you.
Ben, you may be younger than me, and single, and childless, and basically unemployed, and thereby freewheelin’, but trust me, I’ve learned more from you than you have from me. You are bold, and honest, and fearless, and crushingly humble - remain that way despite the world.
But don’t let it go to your head. You’re still a selfish asshole deep down. Don’t forget what you’re capable of, good and bad.
Keep these posts coming. Every time you state your faith publicly you hammer your stake further into the ground on who you are and what you believe.
Brothers and Sisters,
Lately I have been thinking a whole lot about community. Much of this has been inspired by a renewed commitment to thanksgiving. He has shown me that one of the biggest blessings in my life is my tremendous network of friends and family. From you, I have learned what love…
