great quote...

Michael Frost wrote this...
"Someone once challenged me that in the world to come there'll be no mission, only worship. I couldn't disagree more. In the world to come we will still be charged with the task of declaring Jesus' rule over all of life. Sure, we won't be feeding the poor or planting churches. Those missional activities will cease when every knee bows, every tongue confesses, and every tear is wiped away. But I'm looking forward to the unhindered mission of the new age, not to an eternal worship service." What do you think?

books

I am in a season of reading and I don't want to stop. In fact, my desire for reading is distracting me from other things...like work and life.

There are two specific books that are challenging my thought process right now: (1) The Shaping of Things to Come by Michael Frost and Alan Hirsch and (2) Exiles: Living Missionally in a Post-Christian World by Michael Frost.

Frost is speaking at a conference that I'm going to in August and I want to be prepared to engage with what he says and not simply be blown away with his provocative words. I'll comment more about these reads soon...
