Interesting....

I'm reading "The Silence of Adam" by Dr. Larry Crabb and I just read something that I love:
"The single most important truth about people is the truth that is most easily ignored: that we bear the image of God. As image-bearers, we are called to tell his story with our lives, not to tell our stories with his resources."
He's talking about what he calls "recipe theology" and "transcendent theology" - the temptation to use scripture as a five-step-plan toward self-improvement over getting to know the One we were designed to resemble, so that we know what direction to take in becoming who we were created to be...and accepting the risks of making mistakes while we're at it.

Becky? Wanna take it and run with it?
