There are scars on my faith, but
Posted by tom | Oct 30, 2009Another quote from Gordon MacDonald's presentation on The Changing Face of Ministry: Engaging All Ages in the Mission of the Church.
There are scars on my faith, but underneath those scars there are no doubts. (Christ) has me with the consent of all my being and with the cooperation of all my life. The song I sing is a life song. Not the temporary exuberance of youth that often fades when middle and old age sets in with their disillusionment and cynicism. … No, I’m eighty-three and I’m more excited today about being a Christian than I was at eighteen when I put my feet upon the Way. ... Now by seasoned, tested, corroborated experience I know that this is not a way, but the Way. -- E. Stanley Jones
To God be the glory! Join me in prayer that Theresa and I might share such testimony in coming years.
