The Kingdom Is Not An Exclusive, Well-trimmed

Hope Your Wildest Hopes, Dream Your Maddest Dreams, Imagine Your Most Fantastic Fantasies. Where Your Hopes And Your Dreams And Your Imagination Leave Off, The Love Of My Heavenly Father Only Begins.

The North American Church Is At A Critical Juncture. The Gospel Of Grace Is Being Confused And Compromised By Silence, Seduction, And Outright Subversion. The Vitality Of The Faith Is Being Jeopardized. The Lying Slogans Of The Fixers Who Carry Religion Like A Sword Of Judgment Pile Up With Impunity. Let Ragamuffins Everywhere Gather As A Confessing Church To Cry Out In Protest. Revoke The Licenses Of Religious Leaders Who Falsify The Idea Of God. Sentence Them To Three Years In Solitude With The Bible As Their Only Companion.

For Ragamuffins, God's Name Is Mercy. We See Our Darkness As A Prized Possession Because It Drives Us Into The Heart Of God. Without Mercy Our Darkness Would Plunge Us Into Despair - For Some, Self-destruction. Time Alone With God Reveals The Unfathomable Depths Of The Poverty Of The Spirit. We Are So Poor That Even Our Poverty Is Not Our Own: It Belongs To The Mysterium Tremendum Of A Loving God.

God Loves Us As We Are...not As We Ought To Be. Because We Are Never Going To Be As We Ought To Be." --brennan Manning

God Loves You Unconditionally, As You Are And Not As You Should Be, Because Nobody Is As They Should Be.
