Being broke and being broken

There is a massive difference between being broke and being broken. -Tim Marks

Transformation on the journey

"Life is a journey, not so much a destination, but a transformation. 

Looking back, doesn't it sometimes feel our richest times come right in the midst of our hardest moments? 

God made us to live in community, to laugh and cry, to hurt and celebrate with each other no matter what we are going through.

And transformation is tough.

We don’t always end up where we think we will.

But we have to remember, even when we struggle to believe in Him, He always believes in us. He fills our life with purpose and passion if we just let Him.

The best part of the journey is that the God of the universe sometimes allows us to play a part in changing the world. 

Isn't that a trip?"

-From movie "To Save a Life"

Learning to unlearn

"Learning to be who you really are often begins with unlearning, with deep questioning of your beliefs and assumptions, often imaginary, about yourself. This process, which can be so joyful, is not always easy."
-- Dennis Lewis
