Wow...

Sometimes in my work, I come across articles that encapsulate a great deal of what is wrong with the American church.

"Looking for God" by Nancy Ortberg


Over lunch, I've been reading "Looking for God" by Nancy Ortberg. She was on staff at Willowcreek, working closely with Axis. I heard about her and this book on the Catalyst podcast several months ago. My wife has already read the book, and I am just over half way through. With everything that is going on in my life, this book is right on target for me. Check out the podcast to hear from Nancy, and then pick up the book.
