Hey Everyone,

Here’s a few “That’s Quotables” from this week in my reading … one of my goals this year is to READ more.

“We should never worship God in an unprescribed manner”. (Pure Praise, Dwayne Moore)

“Friendship with God is based on our present obedience, while a relationship with him is based on our permanent adoption as his children.” (Pure Praise, Dwayne Moore)

“In the same way, we worship leaders are in danger of merely going through the motions of “professional praise” without connecting on an intimate level with the One to whom the praise is directed.  Friendship with a personal God is an absolute must for us.” (Pure Praise, Dwayne Moore)

“Francis didn’t criticize the institutional church, nor did he settle for doing church the way it had always been done.  He rose above those two alternatives and decided that the best way to overhaul something was to keep your mouth shut and simply do it better “. (Chasing Francis, Ian Morgan Cron)

“Seek to be the change you wish to see in the world”. (Ghandi, as quoted by Ian Morgan Cron in “Chasing Francis”)

“To be always relevant, you have to say things which are eternal.” (Simone Well, as quoted by Marshall Shelley, Leadership Magazine)

Speaking of Leadership Magazine – Chris (a blogger and worship leader in Canada, I’ll be meeting him in a few days, checkout his blog) IM’d me yesterday and told me that my blog made a list of “Helpful Worship Blogs” in the Winter 2009 issue.  Wow – I have that magazine on my desk that arrived last week, and haven’t had time to take it in yet … but here it is … way cool, and thanks for the honor!

So what are you reading right now – and what’s speaking to you?  (Yeah, hopefully, the Bible is included) … share you favorite quotes or verses from things you’ve been reading this month.

Comment away!
