Change Takes Time

"Whatever hyperspace drive is selected, whether it’s Captain Kirk calling for “Warp speed!” or the Battlestar Galactica jumping from Cylons with the "Faster-Than-Light Drive," we do not have the luxury of microwaving our spiritual growth.

You’d think from reading some headlines today that such a thing actually exists:  Kick Old Habits Out To The Curb in 30 Days, Be The New You in a Week, or how about Achieve Your Dreams By Doing A, B, and C?

Maybe that is why God chose a time-honoring skill like carpentry as his earthly occupation.  God enjoys crafting something of value, working with His hands."

Changing The World

"Never doubt that a small, group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

- Margaret Mead

Change and Movement

"All change is not growth; as all movement is not forward."

- Ellen Glasgow

Embrace The New, For In Movement There Is Life

 "It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power."

- Alan Cohen
