Out of the Ordinary

217. Beauty in the Messy Middle


Listen Later

Can you believe what Christie is doing at Maplehurst? 

Sometimes embodied faithfulness can feel like drudgery.  Today we talk about how staying awake and staying in motion with our faith is a messy journey.  We don't romanticize life here.  Staying awake to what God is doing is sometimes like falling forward. If you want to sleep-walk or numb the pain, we have some glimmers of hope for you. Being in the process is not bad. Cleaning dishes every day is annoying but in order to stay awake we can't have tunnel vision for just today! This episode will give you some perspective for all of us who are in the muddy middle somewhere in our life right now.
