Miroslavian wisdom

"Inscribed on the very heart of God's grace is the rule that we can be its recipients only if we do not resist being made into its agents; what happens to us must be done by us. Having been embraced by God, we must make space for others in ourselves and invite them in - even our enemies. This is what we enact as we celebrate the Eucharist. In receiving Christ's broken body and spilled blood, we, in a sense, receive all those whom Christ received by suffering." (Miroslav Volf)

Voices

There sure are a lot of different voices out there. This morning a lady dropped off some JW publication at my home. I listened to some Foo Fighters. I listened to a some what disturbing Mark Driscoll sermon. Everybody's seems to know something, or everything.

I kind of hate that any loud idiot can be heard. We need to find good voices to listen to cause there is too much bull crap out there. Lets not exchange the Dylans and the Barths for the Kroegers and the Driscolls.
