Modern-day prophets
There are books on my shelf waiting to be read. What with reading for a living as an editor, it sometimes takes me a while to plow through one.
My reading for pleasure normally consists of ministry-related material, which is one of several reasons I don't think I could handle going to seminary. It would get in the way of my ministerial studies.
I just finished Shane Claiborne's "The Irresistible Revolution: Living as an ordinary radical." I started it while at annual conference. It was a trip, and you can read my initial thoughts on the June 15 entry at "Gathering Wool."
As if I don't have enough books waiting for me, I ordered another ordinary radical book called "Starving Jesus." It's been pinned by Craig Gross and JR Mahon, both of whom are part of XXXChurch. The sample chapter is intriguing; a sample chapter is what drew me in to Shane's book.
Joel 2:28-32 has probably been overquoted, but I've gotta tell ya folks: I think there are some young prophets among the church today ... and we need to be listening.
Grace and peace ...
