Random thoughts from a meeting...

I'm sitting in a IYCM youth pastor leadership meeting. We just watched a Donald Miller DVD on some thoughts on Christianity. A lot of stuff to plow through, but here are some thoughts...

- No one will listen to you until they know how much you care about them.

- Ask a non-Christian..."Is there any way the church has hurt you in the past?" Apologize to them and begin a journey of healing through friendship and discussion.

- Why have we politicized abortion, but not poverty? What will help reach more people? What helps show the love of Jesus?

- It’s time to repent for NOT CARING about people who are not like you.

- How do you look at people? Do you have compassion for ALL people?

- Do I think life is a “a movie” about me?

- Does the no-name people you pass by everyday have any value to you?

- Miller suggests Evangelical Christians are the most fear people in the country behind serial killers.
