irresistible revolution

"There are plenty of people who are miserable in their jobs, for they have not listened to God’s call. And I would add there are many Christians who are not fulfilled in their spiritual lives because they have no sense of their gifts or purpose. And they just run to the mission field to save souls rather than transform lives and communities using their first and those of the people they live among. Both lead to emptiness and burnout." -Shane Caliborne

That book is truly beautiful. I've read it about 4 times, I think.
