saint francis...

just listened to brian mclaren's sermon on saint francis... incredible story... very timely i think...

he tells of how francis didnt seek to create a 'new order' in the roman catholic tradition... it kind of convicts me about us distinguish some of ourselves as the 'emergent church'... as if its the new, true way... i dunno...

great quote from francis that there must be humility in reformer's hearts... that is so timely as we stand on the edge of two worlds... the church of now and the church to come...

let us not be too judgemental and fundamentalist in our own new thinking that we loose humility...
