A Life Of Integrity

"Live in such a way that you would not be ashamed to sell your parrot to the town gossip."

- Will Rogers

"Give Me Your Eyes"

This is a video put together by a man named John Thornton. He is a man who once led a 'hopeless life.' Thanks to those who cared for him, he is serving in full-time ministry at an outreach center in Florida, and creates amazing videos like this one. Please take four minutes and watch.

Fellow blogger Mike at "Mike Is Messed Up" originally posted this story. I love that he asks, "What does a hopeless cause look like? It looks like you and me."

Who can you reach out to today?

Outside The Walls

"It's not about people populating programs but about God inhabiting every moment of our lives- most happen outside the walls of the church."

- Sarah from Living Between the Lines

Pray...So We Can Start Living

"It is not that we need to stop living and then pray. We must come to pray… so we can start living. There is no real life apart from prayer. Isn’t relationship the only reality? Thus prayer, relationship with God, is the ultimate reality. Anything without prayer, anything apart from God, is the false life."

- An excerpt from "The Simplicity of Prayer For Beginners" (A must read post from Holy Experience)

Life's Puzzles

"Only God knows the whole picture. He is also experienced enough with putting puzzles together to remind us: it’s just no use forcing pieces together that almost, but don’t quite fit."
