PASSION AND PRODUCTION
There were a group of people standing outside a very large and ornate cathedral in Europe and they were admiring the very fine craftsmanship, the detail work, the care and the love that seemed evident in building such a fine place to worship a loving God. One of the men turned to another in the group and said, "Why can’t we build so today? Why can’t we build with such pride, such craftsmanship today?" The other man replied, "They had convictions; we have opinions."
(From a sermon by Tim Zingale, "An Encounter with God" 1/19/2009)
