You Cannot Wash The Feet

Religion As A Whole Specializes In Sin Management. It's All About Organizing Humanity In Such A Way That We Cause As Little Damage As Possible.

The Epicenter Of Creativity And Imagination Should Be The Church, Reflecting The Character And Glory Of God.

Love, No Matter How You Come At It, Is A Huge Risk. It Makes It Easier For Me To Remember That God Will Never Reject Me Because I Am Not Good Enough And That Any Community That Has His Heart Will Embrace Me As I Am. Jesus Invites Us Into A Community Where Imperfect People Can Find Acceptance, Love, Forgiveness, And A New Beginning.

The Barbarian Way Was, In Some Sense, Trying To Create A Volatile Fuel To Get People To Step Out And Act. It's Pretty Hard To Get A Whole Group Of People Moving Together As Individuals Who Are Stepping Into A More Mystical, Faith-oriented, Dynamic Kind Of Experience With Christ. So, I Think Barbarian Way Was My Attempt To Say, "look, Underneath What Looks Like Invention, Innovation And Creativity Is Really A Core Mysticism That Hears From God, And What Is Fueling This Is Something Really Ancient." That's What Was Really The Core Of The Barbarian Way.

A World Without God Cannot Wait For Us To Choose The Safe Path. If We Wait For Someone Else To Take The Risk, We Risk That No One Will Ever Act And That Nothing Will Ever Be Accomplished.
