Shut Up and Like It

I feel most saddened by how most of us Americans treat worship, as if it were a product we consume. Someone once asked Eugene Peterson, "What is the single most important act of the Christian that could do the most good for the church in America?" After a thoughtful pause, Peterson answered, "Go to the church nearest your home, shut up, and like it."(The Complete Book of Discipleship by Bill Hull, pg. 220)

Quotes can shape you... books can help you grasp a concept but sometimes it is just one line that rocks your world. It is a joy to find those lines. You read it and you almost have to set the book down and just soak for a moment. I enjoy sharing those finds even though sometimes others aren't effected the same way. I can't miss the opportunity to share anyways. Enjoy.

The goal is not to master the bible. The goal is to be mastered by the bible.
