Passions...

Just watched the trailer for Jon Acuff's new book Quitter.  Not only am I buying this book I'm also having a huge man-crush on it.  You too can have bromance with this book...or just a regular romance if you'd like, just click here.  I heard somewhere that Jon Acuff was concerned he couldn't write this book, it was probably from him....if the book is anything like the trailer (I've read the sample chapter - it's gonna be great) I hope he can't write another book.  That brings me to my reason for posting.  Passions.  Anybody else passionate?  Do you have something that you totally love and yet seem to be grasping at straws?  Me too.

I'm not saying that I don't LOVE my job, because I totally do.  But there is this crazy part of me that wants that next best thing.  Recently the church has been breaking out of the mold...suddenly we are moving into the 21st century.  Online ministry.  Yeah, crazy I know...but I want to get in on this.  I'm not really a numbers guy nor that tech savvy, but I really feel called to this.  As Jon says, I want my day job to be a launching pad for my dream job (or something like that).  I know I might be stepping out on a limb but the so did all of the greats in history right?  Certainly I can't compare myself to them - but do you see what I'm saying?  Risk nothing, gain nothing - right.

What about you?  What's your passion?  Do you have a dream?  Are you _____, but you really want to do _______.  Let's talk about that....
