		<description>Love this Brad. There are a few ideas that I&#039;ve had to walk away from because they would do more damage than good. And a few that I had to walk into because they were what needed to be shared regardless of how they might be received. Great thought man, awesome words of wisdom in this post.

		<description>Well said Brad, and a great example/illustration.

It is difficult some times to step back and gain perspective, especially when fired up about something and when you are writing with so much passion at play.  This provides a good measuring stick to lay our writing next to.

Thank you for sharing, and hello to Lisa and the kids!

		<description>Wow man....really transparent and open....  It&#039;s what it&#039;s all about though, are we glorifying God and helping restore others who are lost or hurting, etc....  as a side note I can&#039;t leave a post without being a little silly after a serious comment.  I do feel hurt about losing the coffee contest Brad...  I am not feeling much redemption or restoration from you for not picking Cherith or I.

		<description>Good post.  I find my great passion, women leading in the church, to be so very controversial.  And it was well over fifteen years before the Lord let me begin speaking and writing on the subject for that very reason.  All of our words should come from a whole heart that seeks to see redemption and restoration.  Anger only takes you far from the heart of Jesus.  Thanks for your transparency.
