Each one of us has unique stories to tell about how we got to today from yesterday. These stories explain who we have been, who we are, and where we are going. Here are some of mine.
From One Beggar to Another
In the shadow of the cross
Author Glenn Penner (In the Shadow of the Cross, Living Sacrifice Books, 2004) writes that "The Bible (especially the New Testament) was written by persecuted believers to persecuted believers." Think about it. It makes sense. But then think about how we US Americans typically view scripture. It can be too regularly used firstly to proof test our desires for success and reward, and only secondly as a resource when times are rough. Let me say that differently. I wonder if we come to scripture from a position of power and strength (perhaps not overt, but maybe culturally so), rather than from a position of being outcasts even amongst our own?
