I was listening to an excerpt from Watchman Nee’s Release of the Spirit, from Christianaudio’s Devotional Classics podcast, and Nee said something like, “God will not deliver us from the dishes. He will only deliver us from our response to the dishes.”
And the disciples said, “This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?”

I don’t have time to write a Things I Don’t Have Time to Write About, but let me highly recommend to you: Over the Rhine’s The Trumpet Child (“the trumpet child will blow his horn/ Will blast the sky till its reborn”); Galactic’s From the Corner to the Block; and The Bible Podcast. No commentary, no mish mash, lollygagging or white noise, just a chapter a day with a fantastic intro & outro theme.
been listening to Trumpet Child for a couple of weeks, excellent album. Not so happy with Crowded Houses new one but it won’t keep me from going to their ACL show taping and their ACL Festival slot.
Yeah, just keep digging that in. True for me, too, about the new CH. Just didn’t blow me away. But if they’ll keep going, I know there’ll be some gems.
