The Way of Jesus is not just narrow, but also as a low ceiling that pushes you into a posture of humility. There is no pride in the Way.

Some true analysis from Scot McKnight concerning American Christianity. The Unmasking of Evangelicalism

Some say Catholics are not Christian. Yet the Pope is more Christ-like than most Protestant pastors I’ve encountered: preaching and brining the gospel to the poor.

“We have a lot to say about this topic, and it’s difficult to explain, because you have been lazy and you haven’t been listening.” Heb. 5:11 I feel ya bro, I feel ya.

God: “Doom to those who pronounce wicked decrees, and keep writing harmful laws to deprive the needy of their rights and to rob the poor among my people of justice.” Christians: “But they are illegal…”

All this talk about UFOs: maybe they are not aliens but rather an advanced civilization that we have yet to discover here on earth. They’ve kept themselves hidden for centuries, and now it is getting harder to avoid as we advance.

One of the most zen like sayings of Jesus: “If you were blind, you wouldn’t have any sin, but now that you say, ‘We see,’ your sin remains.”

I’d write a poem about Pentecost Sunday, but alas, there is no one to interpret.

“Your beer is diluted with water… Doom! I will vent my anger…” Isa. 2:21,24 Careful, God doesn’t like light beer.

The Gospel: foolishness to Christians, stumbling block to evangelicals - but it is the power of God to salvation to all who have faith in God.

People need to stop bombing people.

“Why are pastors experts on the truth and dropouts on the way?” ~ Eugene Peterson
