Hope for the Hopeless

What if genuine faith begins with admitting we will never have our act completely together? Maybe messy disciples are exactly the kind of imperfect people, Jesus came to earth for and who company he actually enjoyed--and still, enjoys. If you want to find Jesus today, look for him in the midst of burned-out believers, moral misfits, religious incompetents... men and women whose lives are, well, messy. -Mike Yaconelli
