Jesus with dirty feet

In the Kingdom of God, "The King of Self, and the Duke of Success, and the Queen of Convenience are completely dethroned."
This quote from Jesus with Dirty Feet by Don Everts really hit me, especially the convenience part. How many times do we wait to serve God, help someone, or take action until it's the right time? Something I've noticed, is that it's rarely the "right time" in our eyes. Excuses are so easy to come up with. We can always be too busy with something.

Here's another quote, just for comic relief: "Calling a church a building is like calling a Jesus Follower a two-by-four."
