BST's Blog: So Near, Yet So Far
http://brandonscottthomas.blogspot.com/2013/08/so-near-yet-so-far.html
Monday, August 19, 2013. So Near, Yet So Far. Oh, the mystery of things to come. How do you unpack the emotion and admiration that has roots that go 43 years deep? Ronnie continues to decline in Hospice care, but he is slipping away very slowly. His physical body is still here.his heart beats, his lungs take in air, he snores. :) But, his spirit feels far. What does it look like to be in transition between this world and what is to come? But I believe she's right. I can feel His mighty power and His grace.

Monday, September 09, 2013. Make a Joyful Sound.No, Really! Recently, at Highland some big announcements were made. Here was the announcement. Earlier this year the Highland Elders announced that as a group we were discussing adding an instrumental worship service on Sunday mornings here at this building. Our discussion was centered on 3 essential questions, which has led us through our discernment together:. 1 Does Scripture allow for an instrumental worship service on Sunday mornings? After listening t...

Wednesday, August 28, 2013. If We Don't Dream. The church has been guilty of treating people in ways that are shameful. We all know that. But, any wise person also knows that if we forget our past (and aren't able to confess the sins of our present) we are destined to repeat history. It gives me pause. It makes me breathe deeply. It makes me contemplate how I am reflecting the love of Christ to those I consider different from me. Martin Luther King, Jr. Posted by Brandon Scott Thomas. Brooke called about...

Monday, September 30, 2013. Good morning, friends! Yesterday at Highland we continued in our series "Sequels" about the idolatry of sex and romance. It was a powerful day of remembering who God is and laying down our idols. He is faithful even when we are not. As Hosea loved Gomer.God loves us and beyond. I think one of the main questions we deal with that often goes unspoken.and we might not even be aware of.is, can I trust God. I see God lovingly gaze upon us asking, " Do you.

Thursday, March 07, 2013. Our staff is reading Deep and Wide, the amazing book by Andy Stanley. I highly recommend this book to EVERYONE! It is an important read for anyone who cares about the future of the church. It's hard to choose quotes from this book because I soon realized I was underlining about 90% of everything in it. But, today, this part stuck out to me. It's hard to extend grace to people who don't seem to need it. And it's hard to admit you need it when you aren't sure you'll receive it.

Monday, August 19, 2013. It is impossible to write anything that measures my deep love for, admiration of, connection to, and influence by this man. Last night, as I left the hospital around midnight I told Brooke, "I pray he just slips away. Gently. Quickly.". That is exactly what happened. Mom and I immediately hurried to the hospital to be with everyone. He was so peaceful. Our prayers had been answered. "Pop"/ "Ahbaba" had slipped from this life into the next. I found some jewels for sure. One of...
