meditatio at the water's edge

"I believe there are unquestionalbe absolutes for all Christians - and perhaps the only absolutes. In the end, God's truth is not a theology, but a real person. Our faith is not about Jesus Christ, not based on Jesus Christ - it is Jesus Christ."

Powerfully good words... I read them tonight in "Adventures in Missing the Point" by Brian McLaren & Tony Campolo. I'm loving the book! It's thoughtful, but it's simple. Too much of this emerging church conversation is written and spoken to the elites. This book can be read without attaining a headache within seven minutes of opening the cover.

Read that first paragraph again... and maybe again. Then take a minute to worship. It is really all about Jesus.

(it's no wonder the Eugene Peterson doesn't understand the idea of "administration" within churches today.) --- It's all about Jesus.
