An Apology

Hi everyone - there's nothing like the Truth to smack you in the face - a couple of posts ago, i wrote to you about driving across the midwest to see a band we love - i was absolutely inspired by the conversation with one of the members afterward - his willingness to admit to his struggles in his life, especially as it relates to church, was really humble of someone who really had no need to share anything, with this strange family from Lafayette.

But, as i glanced at his email that apprently my wife had printed, tonight on the desk, i realized that i had misstated his words and i must correct what i have said:

1) He does go to church and has for multiple years.

and

2) He prayed through his music all night long - not needing to make it somehow more formal than that.


And so, my apologies go out to him and to you, for misstating and for confining prayer to something that happens only when someone formally talks outloud to God - it was lame of me - and i am sorry. Talking to God can be in song, can be in our heads, can be in appreciation of nature or life or a million things - you would think that after 3+ years of leading More than more i would be the first to realize this!


The beauty of the disillusioned and their search for God is still the same, as is the truth that all people who try to follow after God's way have trouble and difficulties along the way - you are not alone in your struggle - but together we can find support in the difficult times - i hope all who come find it at More than more.

Thanks

Jason
