The Passion of Aaron Stanton
Posted in: Church Planting, CultureThis guy is passionate. He’s driven. So what’s the story? Well, his name is Aaron Stanton, and he’s got an idea for Google. Thing is, they won’t listen. So what does he do? He hops on a friggin’ plane and flies to Mountain View, CA and waits 3 days for a meeting with them. Then he presents his idea. Here’s his story: Can Google Hear Me?
Why is that on this blog? Well..what if we had the same passion to reach our culture as Aaron had to reach Google? What if it would take the cultural equivalent of flying across the country in order for our message to be heard? Would we do it at all costs? I think a church planter not only should “fly across the country”, but he has to. Our news is much more important than any idea that could ever be pitched to Google. When are we, as cultural liasons, going to start acting like it?
You don’t need to spread your message. we’ve all heard it. we’re all sick of it. Leave Aaron out of your twisted Xian fantasies.
On the contrary, friend, not “all” have heard it; that’s kind of the point of posts like these. And there are no fantasies here, except when I occasionally talk about Crichton books and Star Wars!
