Gladiator

Just finished watching Gladiator with Jesse, Jake, and Mike. Wow - can you believe I've never seen it?!

OK - so June went by SO FAST and I still don't have a job. ;) I posted my resume at several Christian ministry job sites, and I got my first email today - asking me if I was interested in a youth/worship minister position in Ontario. Yes, Canada. That's pretty exciting. What an adventure.

...Which is why guys like movies like Gladiator - the adventure, the battle... living life and dying for something you believe in. May I live my life that way, even in this transition time. Ready to die daily for my Savior.

Jerry Voll described Jesus' life like this on Bruderhof.com... Jesus lived his life an adventure - with purpose every day. Might I do the same? Might we all?

"As God’s son, Jesus was at the same time flesh and blood. He was real God and real man. When Jesus walked this earth with his disciples he related to them as man to man. They were brothers, some even by blood. This physical relationship extended to all the people with whom Jesus had contact. The multitudes had come to know God as a real person. He worked with them, ate with them, talked with them, challenged them, instructed them, partied with them, trusted them, loved them, died for them, rose for them."
