anybody who’s trying to make a career out of spreading the Gospel without the prolonged, committed, relationship-building aspect that you’d have as a teacher or a pastor…I’m biting you

#research theologians you’re allowed but you’re on thin ice!! you should really have students to keep you from going nuts!#famous traveling speakers: you’re my enemy and you’re doing evangelization wrong #read the letters of Paul! he traveled but he had RELATIONSHIPS with the people in each place!#I just can’t get past the feeling that these people want to BE famous themselves #if they just had a message they would write a book yknow???#but they write a book and THEN they place their grinning mug on every possible outlet #they want their personality to be the vehicle #which is sooooooo unpriestly #in which cate tells stories
