Faith

I”ve been meditating recently on the act of trusting God. Why is faith such a difficult thing for us? I can relate so well to the Scriptures where Paul confesses his struggle with old nature vs. the new nature—desiring to follow and trust God while at the same time being sucked into the world’s grasp of following and trusting in yourself. This is the cosmic battle of the universe. We are not yet fully transformed, but we have in our relationship with Jesus the taste of what that full transformat…

Montana

Well, I'm home now, but my mind continues to wonder back to Montana, where the mountains loom majestic next to the rushing waters of the famous Madison river. If you're into fly fishing, this place is one step away from heaven.

I landed this 17" Rainbow after n…

Journey Southern Style

50+ people from The Journey loaded a bus, and/or flew or drove Sunday & Monday to Lakeshore, MS to aid in the continuing relief from Katrina. For those of you who are following our adventure, we arrived and we're having a great time serving the good people of this…

The Journey Heads South

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BOFIbnCfCs[/youtube]

On Sunday, over 50 people will load a bus and make the 16+ hours ride to Lakeshore, Mississippi, where we will partner with our friends from Lakeshore Baptist Church in rebuilding Lakeshore after the devastation of Katrina. Beth put this video together to encourage people from The Journey to go with us. At the time, I thought if we had 20 people commit to the trip I'd be happy. My faith was so small. What a blast…

Love & Fanaticism

This morning, Beth & I sat on our deck, sipped on coffee, and chatted about many things--one of which was about how to change the world. (Yes, this is often casual conversation around the Harris homestead). We spoke of various people who are trying to change the culture, and made commentary on their methods and approaches. During the conversation, I realized that many who are trying to change the world are doing so because they are FANATICS, while others are doing so because the are LOVER…

At 2:34pm on August 10th, 2007, Dan Wilburn said…: Good. Yes, I'd highly recommend to your people going to serve that they go as "pilgrims." There is an actual "discipline of pilgrimage" (a way to be a pilgrim) that my people totally used to go on their trip. It keep it from being a "missions" trip, from being a vacation or tour. They went to be changed rather than helping others (tho they did help others). Anyway, I am finding a significantly better way to be missional -- both local and global. It'd be good to catch up some time. Perhaps at the next IMN thingy.
