I mean, sometimes I think God wants you to do something specific. Like I really believe that I was supposed to move here, and that God has some specific reason for my being here. But I think we focus too much on it in everything. So you aren't an Obama fan? I think he'll be hailed as a great president because he'll be compared to Bush. Like how Mbeki is often portrayed negatively despite his quality compared to many current African leaders because he followed Mandela. Yeah, I think I kinda agree.

So you aren’t an Obama fan? I think he’ll be hailed as a great president because he’ll be compared to Bush. Like how Mbeki is often portrayed negatively despite his quality compared to many current African leaders because he followed Mandela.

That was the first part of the meatiness of the sermon, the second was envisioning how our community should work from Romans 12:9-16. I was really happy with how it worked. I think drawing attention to our creation in the image of God in this area is important. God exists in community. That's why we have a need for community; we are created in his image. yo man, I love this … the trinity as the theological basis for our need for community was a big part of a sermon i did a couple of months ago.

Somehow, that really makes the command hit home more, and makes it much harder for me to avoid being convicted. I really like the point about the rich young ruler having a wife and two kids.

I have been healed by the Healer to go out and heal. good post – I read somewhere recently that we are little creations sent out to continue the work of the Creator by creating…so I guess the same could be said of our call to healing.
