to philly:

Untitled

so...we're moving to philly, pa.

or well, a suburb of there.

should be quite soon now.

it's exciting and scary,

as all things of course.

this beautiful man,

I've read two of his books, and they've meant more to me than sermon upon sermon ever could.

He's brilliant and lovely and seeing him in this state brought me to tears.

And amazingly he's even more beautiful,

all you have to do is read a few comments from this video to realize the impact he's made.

I've posted some of the comments just because it shows the legacy of such an inspiring man:

• This man took a spiritual dagger to the bottom of a very heavy suitcase I refused to set down; he healed the Father image, and lightened my burden one Saturday afternoon several years ago. I remember finally setting that old suitcase down; there's no point in carrying around anything that light and empty-except, of course, a heart set free of hurt, resentments, and plaguing doubt. Jesus, at some point in our eternity, place me in front of this man again, so I can properly say "thank you."

• Brennan Manning... a true disciple of our loving Abba. His insights have changed the way I look at my Lord and God. Because of 2 books: The Ragamuffin Gospel and Abba's Child, I see God in a much brighter light.

• Jesus said: Verily, verily, I say unto you he that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

  He died was buried and rose again and saves by grace through FAITH ALONE. God bless.

• A 'washed up' priest speaks the healing words that God is good and for us and loves us. Like a song lyric light can only flow through the cracked
