Scott says some great things about how we need to get back to the early church (not beards and biblical garb) they lived this! they were the church at all times! it wasn't something they went to. I also like how he mentioned about us trying to fit Jesus into our lifestyle, this can never work, Jesus did not come to make us a better version of ourselves but to remake us entirely. Our lives make so much sense and mean a lot more when we stop trying so hard and let Jesus live through us.

I would have to say that I agree with those. I think John and you do an extremely good 'job' at those. on a side note, I think I was calling you right in the middle of your conference...and John, and Karl...I hope I didn't interupt. :) Wow.
