upon my return to Bp, I took the metro from the railway station and then waited for a bus, this was my view as I waited…
is this Szeged??
I was off line for three days… so this is what I would have posted a few days ago… a new tram line with a new tram to serve the people of Szeged… very smooth indeed…

The Pastor
I found Eugene Peterson’s memoir very helpful. The story of his life journey is helpful because Peterson uses stages of life and experiences to teach lessons. I was fascinated by hos journey from being academia bound to being a pastor. He talks about calling in the context of experience. But I think the two most helpful things one might take from this are his descriptions of the collaboration of people of faith and the stories of how people grew into their understanding and belief in Jesus. The bell that rang most true for me was the moving out of the “Badlands” which included a deeper understanding of what Sabbath really is. Is Sabbath important to you?

The King Jesus Gospel
Scot McKnight’s thoughts on the WHOLE Gospel really rang true to me. To understand that the whole Gospel is not just a plan of salvation but is an understanding of God’s greater plan. God interacts with us in the Creation, Fall and Redemption story.

back on the rails
if we view life as a journey, we find ourselves together with people in a compartment in the train we ride on…
I left Budapest on a train…
…to get to Szeged where I spoke at church on using questions, relationships and Scripture in discipling relationships…
the question is, what do we do with those people? Do we ignore them? Reach out? intentionally connect with them?
At the next stop, when you look out the window, you will see people get on the train, they may enter the compartment you are in, what will you do?
