I am diving into a new / old book called Velvet Elvis by a Mr. Rob Bell. I have never been very interested in reading unlessnit has something to do with application. So as you could probably guess I am not one for fiction... So yes, sadly i did miss out on the Twighlight craze. Which I sort if regret after finally seeing the movie.

But on to Rob Bell's Velvet Elvis... The part that i am reading talks about how it is okay to ask questions. If we ever have all the questions of who God is answered then we are making God into something that he isn't. A few words from the book:
" questions bring freedom. Freedom that I don't have to be God and I don't have to pretend that I have it all figured out. I can let God be God.... Central to the Christian experience is the art of questioning God. Not beligeren, arrogant questions that have no respect for our maker, but naked, honest, vulnerable, raw questions, arising put of the awe that comes from engaging the living God... Truth always leads to more.... Truth. Because truth is insight into God and God is infinite and God has no boundaries or edges. So truth always has layers and depth and texture. One of the greatest "theologians" of our time, Sean Penn, put it this way: "when everything gets answered, it's fake. The mystery is the truth."
THE MYSTERY IS THE TRUTH."

This has really been helpful my when encountering and being around people who love the Lord and have different views or opinions. Some people may know that i have been reading up on certain takes of Christianity. Velvet Elvis has helped me realize that no matter how much I get confused, question, or read He is still and always will be a mystery to me and that is the way it is supposed to be. I know that I love Him, want to live for Him, and continue to ask questions... Raw, honest questions... In order to grow closer to the reality that is God and His way that is the truth and the life.
