"I wonder at some points if I am being irresponsible or unwise. But then I realize that there is never going to come a day when I stand before God and He looks at me and says, 'I wish you would have kept more for yourself.'"

The above quote is one of my favorites from a book that I just finished called "Radical." It is one pastor's look at what it really means to follow Christ in the American context. Parts of it read like "Hole in Our Gospel" and parts of it literally felt like reading some of my own papers from BCOM.
The oddest part was that I could always tell when I had come across a paragraph or chapter that sounded like my thoughts in my I'm-writing-a-paper-right-now voice (which *I think* sounds very different from my any-other-time writing voice), because I would totally space out when reading it - just like I did when I was trying to proofread one of my papers!
Good quote. Decent book. Very odd sensation.
