Goal--added for 2009
Seek to have all aspects of my life push me towards the glory of God---anything that detracts me from this or lessens this--- get rid of it....seek to walk in his love....seek to out-love others.

Simple Spirituality
Chris Heuertz has recently finished writing a book called Simple Spirituality, which has been released by InterVarsity Press July 28 .
The final chapter of the book is about brokenness. In it Chris writes,
"Our prayers, our worship, our praxis of living into a simple spirituality and a grounded theology are all, in a sense, attempts to tend to Christ’s open wounds. Unless we have the courage to put our hands into the hurting places of Christ’s body – the hurting places of the world – the world won’t have reason to trust that God is good … We can’t simply proclaim God’s love and sing about it. We need to simply live it."
