Home again after a week away. As Amanda observed, Whimsy has some attachment disorders; he was beside himself to welcome us back.

Tonight before sleeping in my own bed, I called up a video made by two of my favorite World Racers, Ian Schumann and Marisa Banas. Whenever life's pain tempts me to drift in the direction of cynicism, all I have to do is check out a video like this one and my hope returns. The point of it is: You can make a difference.

More of us need to regain our grasp on the serious hope we've been given.  And more 20-somethings need to go on the World Race and start believing in the Jesus in them.
