Quotes of the Day
I am reading Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller. Interesting book, I understand that it is a book based on his life, etc. However, Donald Miller shares his opinion or as the tag line on the book calls it, “Nonreligious thoughts on Christian spirituality.” throughout the book, I am not sure that I can embrace all of his opinions or thoughts, yet I am impressed with a majority of what I have read. The book is an easy read, it is interesting, there are some funny parts, and it is challenging, a great recipe for a book to keep my attention. Today, I read chapter 10, titled “Belief.” Here are a couple of quotes that stood out to me…you may have heard them before or even been introduced to the main thoughts, but it serves as a great reminder!
“What I believe is not what I say I believe; what I believe is what I do.””Dying for something is easy because it is associated with glory. Living for something is the hard thing. Living for something extends beyond fashion, glory, or recognition. We live for what we believe.”
And just in case my regular readers are wondering. I did not start this book without finishing the two others that I had already started…Hey I’m on a roll.
Horrible Joke
Ok, this was on the white board for like 2 months at the church where I work:
Why do choirs need directors?
Because they don’t know how to conduct themselves!
(Horrible, I know!!!)
