Illiterate


A very good friend of mine sent me an email with this quote by Alvin Toffer, "the illiterate of the 21 century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn."
We have been talking about this very thing for awhile now. About our ability to be effective in ministry if we are not willing to forget what we think we know in order to learn what God is in fact saying right now. It's hard! We are always so sure we have it right, all of it! When suddenly your not talking the same language so we assume that everyone is wrong, not that we need to change.
I pray I never find myself in the place of being illiterate. Not with God, ministry, friends, my children or myself.
