Power, Possessions and Stewards

These are challenging words from Andy Crouch concerning possessions and power.

Learning from Fools - Christianity Today Magazine
Possessions and power are instruments of blindness. They endanger our very souls. The only safe thing to do with them is to forsake them, to put them beyond use, beyond the reach of our foolish dreams.

Andy Stanley didn't say any of that... You've got the wrong Andy.

Please correct.

Sorry- It's Andy Crouch!

This is certainly true. A disturbing trend in modern ministry is the tendency to view ministry as a career rather than a calling.

P.S. It is always a blessing to meet another country preacher!

"Instruments of blindness" -- true. Thanks for the quote.
