Yesterday I posted a quotation from Francis Chan. Today I would like to share a video I came across where he explained why he left his megachurch:
This kind of stuff really speaks to me. I belong to a small parish myself and the more I am a part of it, the more convinced I am that this should be our normal pattern for the Christian life.
Today’s music is a song Matt mentions in tomorrow’s episode of The Eagle and Child, Hard Love by NEEDTOBREATHE:
Trading punches with the heart of darkness Going to blows with your fear incarnate Never gone until it’s stripped away A part of you has gotta die today
In the morning you gon’ need an answer Ain’t nobody gonna change the standard It’s not enough to just feel the flame You’ve gotta burn your old self away
Hold on tight a little longer What don’t kill ya, makes ya stronger Get back up, ’cause it’s a hard love You can’t change without a fallout It’s gon’ hurt, but don’t you slow down Get back up, ’cause it’s a hard love
You know the situation can’t be right And all you ever do is fight But there’s a reason that the road is long It takes some time to make your courage strong
When the wolves come and hunt me down I will face them all and stand my ground ‘Cause there’s a fire burnin’ in me They will see my strength in this love I found Oh
It’s a hard love, it’s a hard love, it’s a hard love, it’s a hard love Oh, it’s a hard love, it’s a hard love, it’s a hard love, it’s a hard love Oh, it’s a hard love, it’s a hard love, it’s a hard love, it’s a hard love
