zombies everywhere!

this is not a halloween post - though it is October 31st

nor is this an anti-halloween post

...

but there are zombies everywhere!

...

as I sat and listened to him I found myself continually nodding my agreement

'how could he see in my head?'

...

there is obviously something going on here - something beneath the surface

these passions and dreams rolling around my head and heart resonating with what I'm hearing

...

there is something going on and I know it's not just with me

there is a stirring among the zombies

can you feel it too?

not just here

and not just there

...

in the midst of chaos and death - life is bursting

can you feel it too?

the wind is changing

...

many are scared

many retreat

but I have hope

those asleep are waking - no longer zombies

...

there is life - deep life

do you have it?

or are you still a zombie? wandering and devouring...

...

I'm not scared of zombies - for you see, I was one

Did you just read "Night of the Living Dead Christian"?

Ha. Nope. Hadn't heard of it until you posted it. Good read?

It's a novel which basically looks at different obstacles to living faithfully for Jesus as "monster-isms" by Matt Mikalatos. Did you read his book "Imaginary Jesus"? If you didn't I'd say Imaginary Jesus was better, but Night of the Living Dead Christians is an alright read if you have a little hankering for monster novels right now.

If you're interested, Imaginary Jesus is free for a short time on Kindle so now would be a good time to get it.
