Swords into plowshares and spears into pruning hooks… beautiful!

This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.
This video is great! It will make you think, it will make you hungry and it will make you want to act!

I think this song is a good reminder to all Christians and especially Christian leaders when self righteousness rears its ugly head.
“Put your God Badge down and love someone”
“
…if I ever get frustrated with life again, if I ever get into river deep debt, I will sell it all and move out into the woods, find some people who aren’t like me and learn to love them and do something even harder, let them love me. I will sleep beneath the stars and whisper thank you to the creator of the universe as a way of reacquainting myself to an old friend, a friend who says, you don’t have to be smart or good looking or religious or anything, you just have to cling to him, love him, need him, and listen to him while he tells his story.

Dustin Kensrue talks about and performs acoustically the song “Grace Alone” from his new worship band The Modern Post. Good stuff!
The Modern Post (New Worship Band feat. Dustin Kensrue of Thrice)
The Modern Post are a new Mars Hill worship band featuring Dustin Kensrue of Thrice on vocals. Check out the song “Grace Alone” from their upcoming The Grace Alone EP to be released August 14th.
I’ve traditionally not been a fan of worship music, but lately I’ve been coming across some good stuff. This song “Wash Me Clean” is from a worship project called Page CXVI. They released a series of four EPs called Hymns in which they re-imagined Hymns and worship songs. The music is beautiful and you can’t deny the power of the words.
Beautiful, isn’t it! God is so clearly evident to me in images like this. The blog post the picture links to, talks about how the light from this image took 1500 years to get to us… mind blowing.
“
We can’t medicate man to perfection again;
We can’t legislate peace in our hearts.
We can’t educate sin from our souls, it’s been there from the start.
But the blind lead the blind into bottomless pits,
Still we smile and deny that we’re cursed.
But of all our iniquities ignorance may be the worst.
— Dustin Kensrue (Thrice)
