This is really good. Important implications for our work in community.
"The thing that struck me about Dallas is that it literally glistens because of the sun and the buildings and the design. It's just very over-the-top materialism..."

John Wesley (1703-1791), a contemporary of Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758), actively opposed slavery, while Edwards supported slavery. I've grown to appreciate Wesley more and more over the years.
After 2 1/2 decades in ministry, I am taking renewal leave for the first time later this year. I am grateful for the support I have received for this from Christy, the boys, Grace church, and the North Texas Conference.
