just the rev

been thinking about the church's obsession with neat and tidy worship - worship that is understandable, clear, obvious, reasonable and that can be linked together.

I think this sucks.

Brian McLaren quotes Vincent Donovan saying "the day we are completely satisfied with what we have been doing; the day we have found the perfect, unchangeable system of work, the perfect answer, never in need of being corrected again, on that day we will know that we are wrong, that we have made the greatest mistake of all."

keep it messy. keep it unfinished. keep it real.
