Sabbaths are "down" days here at the hospital so I got some time to myself. I'm reading the book Crazy Love by Francis Chan. Go buy a copy! Immediately! And start reading it, IMMEDIATELY! But take your time as you go through it. It's not a book to read straight through. You have to meditate on what's being said. For example, on page 100 Chan quotes John Piper saying
"The critical question for our generation - and for every generation - is this: If you could have heaven, with no sickness, and with all the friends you ever had on earth, and all the food you ever liked, and all the leisure activities you ever enjoyed, and all the natural beauties you ever saw, all the physical pleasures you ever tasted, and no human conflict or any natural disasters, could you be satisfied with heaven, if Christ was not there?"
Yeah, deep stuff like that. It's a spiritually challenging read, but a must! At the very least go to the book website http://www.crazylovebook.com/ and read the sample chapter.
This is going to be my only post this week because:
1) It's gonna be a busy week at the hospital as I'm transitioning into some new jobs
and
2) You should spend all your "read David's Haiti blog" time reading Crazy Love instead.
Till next week!
