Insanely sick quote... I will definitely be referencing that. I've already showed a good many of my close friends tonight.

Niceville, FL... Yes, it is nice there.

This is a really great post, Los. I'm a student at UCF and am very active with Campus Crusade for Christ down here. We are currently trying to be molded into almost exactly what you are talking about. We are completely changing our "weekly" meetings to a more coffee-house atmosphere where non-christians won't feel awkward or out of place. This also puts more responsibility on individual Christ-followers to share the LOVE of Christ with these people on a personal, relational, authentic level instead of a man on stage who tells them what they should do.

I'm not even sure the American church will take 20 years to do what you're talking about. Most of the ones who are not starting to transition right now are already behind or are about to be well behind the learning curve...

Good thing it's not about us.

Totally stole that off of failblog.org... but it's still funny.

+1 for John Mark McMillan. God has anointed the words that come out of his mouth for sure. Everywhere that song is played there is a movement of people acknowledging the very tangible God.

Before the Throne of God Above. Every time.

I'm right there with you man. I've been running around the University of Central Florida all day trying to get technical stuff together for Campus Crusade's weekly meeting without really thinking about WHY I do all of this stuff.

But man, 7 meetings. Suckkk.
