My family thinks I'm a kook and brainwashed, but I'm starting to get over that. But it is lonely being the only Christian in my family. My grandpa was but he died of cancer over a year ago. Now trips to see my family are downright painful!

I heard of Radical at my church, it was part of the reccomended reading for our Kingdom Challenge this year end and next year. I read it first, and it made me think about everything in my life the way it is now. I'm not satisfied either. There's still a vacuum, and it refuses to stay empty. What it is filled with should count for something that matters, something that is eternal...It has got me examining myself.<br /><br />Blessings much,<br /><br />katiegfromtennesseekatiegfromtennesseehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02703849303062043642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-8772860813768414122010-10-26T10:26:49.503-04:002010-10-26T10:26:49.503-04:00Radical has been on my nightstand for some time.

After basketball start up, I will pick it up again.<br />I am reading 'Her Daughter's Dream' right now and can so clearly related to the family dynamics in that book. With God's strengh, I am hoping to 'stop the cycle' (my motto) now.

It's funny because often times a friend of mine will joke that she did not hear this message or that talk b/c she doesn't want to be held "accountable" for what was said. We know that she is kidding, but something in our hearts just wants to be okay with being okay, but then Jesus, breaks that mold and calls us to somthing deeper! Oh, how he has been working on me and my family in this "American Dream" interruption. I definitely need to get my hands on that book!<br />I long to live a life that is truly worthy of His calling!Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09863543139743814365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-24015011876078916682010-10-25T13:01:16.592-04:002010-10-25T13:01:16.592-04:00I am reading Radical for the third time right now....I am reading Radical for the third time right now..such an amazing book and I love how it points us back to Scripture.

So I asked my husband (who is a pastor and has a huge collection of books) if he'd heard of "Radical." I swear his face went white. He said, "Yes... why?" I told him I wanted to read it and asked if I could borrow his copy. With a big deep breath, he said yes and admitted that although he'd been hoping I'd read the book, he was afraid that I WOULD! ha ha... that about said all I needed to know about the book. So there it sits, on my nightstand. I'm afraid. He said that once I read it, he'll have no excuse but for us to put it into action. Scary! Because I haven't read it and don't know what that means!!! But... I will. I didn't ask the Lord to give me a neon sign instructing me to read it, but He has!!!Angie @ Flibbertigibberishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14135538155401711109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-14099058362110228022010-10-24T18:50:38.654-04:002010-10-24T18:50:38.654-04:00Amanda - i have this book at home in my 'to-re...Amanda - i have this book at home in my 'to-read' stack.
