I need to pick Mockingbird up. Haven’t listened to it yet.

Have you listened to “Mockingbird” yet? It contains several songs which are very hard to listen to, the lyrics are just that uncomfortable.

Wow do I ever have trouble with people at times. I sometimes even call myself a Pharisee.

I find that if I try to read/pray/do anything spiritual when I’m in that state of mind it taints it and leaves me with great unrest. So I make myself go talk to the person… just to get to know them better. Its kind of hard to hate someone you can’t objectify and “worse” yet you sympathize with. When I see that they love God and that they too struggle with weaknesses that you can overlook about anything.

Stay with it, bro. ;)

I think Derek Webb is seriously writing the best Christian music out there today. Its refreshingly honest. And yah, I often listen to this song, I Repent, and of course Wedding Dress when I need a good reminder to humble myself.

I hear you man. Shane & Shane break my heart a lot when I’m getting RIGHTEOUS on people, if you know what I mean. Thank the Lord for music, otherwise I would be a hard, salty old man by now. It was hard hearing Brad talk about my identity on Sunday morning, because I knew that meant realizing other people’s identity as well. God’s heart is broken for people, so I should want mine to be there too. God loves everyone equally, so I should too.

Good song, I’m there with you dude.

And yah,
iPod + Holy Spirit = Super Spiritual über-Christians
