Michael Spencer quote from Boarshead Tavern

“… the powerful changes that happen in the life of a disciple never come from the disciple working hard at doing anything. They come from arriving at a place where Jesus is everything, and we are simply overwhelmed with the gift. Sometimes it seems as if God loves us too much. His love goes far beyond our ability to stop being moral, religious, obedient, and victorious, and we just collapse in his arms.  -- Michael Spencer

Rock Bottom

It's a good thing to have all the props pulled out from under us occasionally. It give us some sense of what is rock under our feet, and what is sand. It stops us from taking anything for granted.
