When God Stops By
By Ed Gungor
When I first began pastoring nearly thirty years ago, I spent the bulk of my time studying, praying, and counseling people. I lived and breathed ministry and longed for the spectacular. Whatever was going to happen, I knew it was going to be large. My ego, my expectations, and my plans grew exponentially by the minute. And I could almost hear the jet God was sending my way.
Hey God, Will You Be My Valentine?
By Ed Gungor
I think we long for romance because God is romantic. I also believe there is to be romance and mystery in our journey of faith. Paul said, "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. This is a profound mystery-but I am talking about Christ and the church" (Ephesians 5:31-32). It obvious from this text that committed, romantic relationships give us a glimpse into the kind of relationship God wants with each one of us.

A rare wonder in the American church, Gungor is a career minister with a strong aversion to “religion,†who often conducts well-informed discussions on philosophy and church history but can’t go more than two sentences without laughing at his own jokes.
