"Going somewhere means leaving somewhere. Choosing something means choosing against other things. Gaining something means losing something else. And between the old and new--the 'was' and the 'not yet'--there exists only one thing: a very frightening journey called faith."

Yes.  Yesterday, I actually ruffled someone's feathers.  A fellow um.. Apostolic?  commented that this guy was very obnoxious.  I responded that I liked it all the more because of the rawness and simplicity of what he said.  His daughter is a 5th grader in the school, so he did not lose a baby but it still affected their family.

He says what he really feels, but to some people it will sound like he's being a political troll.  You have to listen to HOW he's saying it to realize he really does mean what he is saying.
"Do you sing at church?"
"Yes I sing at church, I sing at home, at work, in the car, at the supermarket, at Wal-Mart..."

Yeah, I definitely agree with you there.

Maybe so. To me personally, it smacked of being completely genuine and sincere.
