    Let people call you out on sin
    Drive old ladies to church
    Bring folks baby meals
    Teach Sunday school
    Pray for the Body
    Have long conversations with awkward people
    Celebrate weddings & kids while waiting on your own
    - Matt Merker
    “Everyone is screwed up, broken, clingy, and scared, even the people who seem to have it more or less together. They are much more like you than you would believe. So try not to compare your insides to their outsides.” - Anne Lamott

    “I assert that nothing ever comes to pass without a cause.” - Jonathan Edwards

    “Entertaining is always thinking about the next course. 
    Hospitality burns the rolls because it was listening to a story.
    Entertaining obsesses over what went wrong. 
    Hospitality savors what was shared. 
    Entertaining, exhausted, says, “It was nothing, really!” 
    Hospitality thinks it was nothing. Really.
    Entertaining seeks to impress. 
    Hospitality seeks to bless.” 
    - Jen Wilkin

    Romans 5:1-5
    Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Through him we have also obtained access by faith  into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3 Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4 and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5 and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

If you told me I had an hour left to live, I would definitely multitask and try to get a lot done. This podcast would be on in the background of my final hour of efficiency.
