Beautiful Resistance

 Jon Tyson asks the question, How would things change if you resolved to rebel against your own indifference and embody the things you long to see in the world?  If you resolve that you would pursue beauty and resist brokenness?  That you would resist idolatry with worship, exhaustion with rest , apathy with hunger, fear with hospitality, contempt with honor, hate with love, privilege with sacrifice, and cynicism with celebration?  If your life became a parable of what happens when someone lives with integrity and in a community no matter the cost?

God is looking for a people to live this way, in spite of the hopelessness around them.  Those He can use to inspire others, those who pursue His pleasure in a culture of compromise.  

Will you respond to that call?
