Couldn't resist reading a little of Mark Batterson's not yet out book... Wild Goose Chase. So, I am reading a chapter a day or at least that is the plan as it stands right now...
From chapter one... here is the quote that caught my attention. "You cannot simultaneously live by faith and be bored. Faith and boredom are antithetical."
I have long said that most of what we, in the church do, is stuff that we can do ourselves without the help of God...and that makes us bored! It only gets exciting when we attempt to do something that we can not do, were it not for God's intervention and then the boredom goes away....
That's kinda what happened to us a year ago at Community of Joy, when we bought our ministry center... it was definitely something that we could not do without God's intervention and the journey has been nothing close to boring!
