My interest is in what's true, where is the life, where is the heart and what inspires.
Rob Bell
Image
This breath, and this moment, and this life is a gift and we are all in this together. We all have countless choices every day to close down or stand up straight and open up, and take a big breath and say YES to the gift.

Image
The life that you want begins the moment you embrace the life you have because all of it is a miracle.

I have been told that I need to believe in Jesus. Which is a good thing. But what I am learning is that Jesus believes in me.

Image
I think the church needs – I think this is the world we are living in and we need to affirm people wherever they are.

Because with every action, comment, conversation, we have the choice to invite Heaven or Hell to Earth.

To me some of the greatest writing is when somebody puts something in words that you felt and experienced and you go, that's it.

And this reality extends beyond this life. Heaven is full of forgiven people. Hell is full of forgiven people. Heaven is full of people God loves, whom Jesus died for. Hell is full of forgiven people God loves, whom Jesus died for. The difference is how we choose to live, which story we choose to live in, which version of reality we trust.

Image
Creating and sharing beautiful things has provided me with the inspiration that we can do things we never thought we could do and that we will get to see wonderful things we never thought we would see.

The historical orthodox Christian faith is extremely wide and diverse.

The life you want begins by embracing the life you have.
Rob Bell
Image
I believe that God is with you, that there is a presence. I believe this God is for you. I don't think the universe is a cold, dead place that is indifferent.

Image
It is better to be fully present and rested and engaged for one thing than rushed, distracted, and scattered for ten.
Rob Bell
Image
When you forgive somebody, when you are generous, when you withhold judgment, when you love and when you stand up to injustice, you are, in that moment, bringing heaven to earth.
Rob Bell
Image
Often the people most concerned about others going to hell when they die seem less concerned with the hells on earth right now, while the people most concerned with the hells on earth right now seem the least concerned about hell after death.

It often appears that those who talk the most about going to heaven when you die talk the least about bringing heaven to earth right now, as Jesus taught us to pray: 'Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.' At the same time, it often appears that those who talk the most about relieving suffering now talk the least about heaven when we die.

If it is true, if it is beautiful, if it is honorable, if it is right, then claim it. Because it is from God. And you belong to God.

When we get to what happens when we die, we don't have any video footage. So let's at least be honest that we are speculating, because we are.
