Confession. I have more of a modern mindset. I read the book. Mostly enjoyed it. It gave me some reason to hope that mos and pomos may actually be on the same team.

I understandwhere Trucker Frank come from a relious view point. People were getting no help with their day to day problems and understand how a person can loose thier faith. Many of the 40ish people like myself are Trucker Frank. He is real and I know Jesus helps person the most whe peole are honest with Jesus.

It is great video and will pass the link on.

Trucker Frank is just how I pictured he would be in the book and a real inspiration to all. Thanks for introducing us to him, Tony.

And Frank…keep on truckin’, bro!

“You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.” What are you all doing?

There are those who ‘get it’ and those who don’t. May we endeavour to be those who get the intent of Jesus’ ministry to be in the world, love people, generously give, befriend tax gatherers and sinners … and enjoy partying with them! ‘Contending,’ I’m concerned for you as I’m afraid you may become like the pharisees of Jesus’ day who, because of the stark black and white contrast which they saw in every situation, couldn’t enter the beautiful, colourful, glorious, awesome—and very present—kingdom of God.
