Description of Protestantism

I came across this on a message board. While I’m happy to acknowledge the many areas where we agree with our separated brethren and hold much in common, this summary of Protestantism hits the nail on the head…

Protestantism: where everyone is a priest except priests, where everyone can bind and loose except bishops, where you can command angels but not ask their help, where you can talk to the devil but not to saints, where everyone gets a crown except the Virgin Mary, where everyone can interpret Scripture except the Church, where every church is a church except the Church…

When I see You

I heard today that Audrey Assad is working on Sarah Kroger’s new album. It therefore seemed like the appropriate time to post this recording of Sarah singing Audrey’s “When I see You”…

[Verse 1]
You have loved me well, in a million ways
But my wounds are all I know
So I turn my head, and I hide my face
Too afraid to come back home

[Chorus]
But all of the doors swing open
When I see You, when I see You
You make my heart unbroken
When I see You, when I see You
And I come undone, I come undone!

[Verse 2]
When my fear comes close, and it robs me blind
Oh, how Your love provides for me
What a winding road, what a river wild
Oh, being Yours, becoming free!

[Bridge]
My eyes more open the closer You come
My heart unfolds like a flower in the sun
My fear grows cold in the light of Your love
My heart unfolds, I’m coming undone!…
My eyes more open the closer You come
My heart unfolds like a flower in the sun
My fear grows cold in the light of Your love
My heart unfolds, I’m coming undone!
