Recently I began reading the book Velvet Elvis, by Rob Bell. The title for this blog comes from the book. Bell uses the metaphor of a trampoline to describe the Christian faith, and it is an image that really resonates with me. In talking about sharing your faith he says, "you rarely defend a trampoline. You invite people to jump on it with you.... You rarely defend the things you love. You enjoy them and tell others about them and invite others to enjoy them with you." This is what I am striving to do with my life. I hope that you will join me in my journey as I continue to follow Jesus as He leads me towards Costa Rica. Come jump with me!
