Nice Perspective from Furtick

Furtick kinda addresses some of his issues this morning on his blog…read the entire post here.

While he does take a moment to congratulate himself, he ends well:

I have said, and will say, some dumb things.  I’ve said some inaccurate things.  Sometimes, I’ve said accurate things in dumb ways.  If it every sounds like I’m schizophrenic because I say one thing in August and another thing in November, it’s because I’m learning.  I’m progressing.  I know it’s uncomfortable to watch me change clothes right in front of you.  But at least I’m fresh.Be patient with me.  I’m not preaching, teaching, blogging and tweeting because I think I’ve got it figured out.  But I figure our church owes it to you to figure it out in front of you.  To learn out loud.

We’re bound to hit some bad notes.  But at least we’ll have ‘em recorded for playback.  Should make some fun blooper reels.

I appreciate what he says here, but I do wish he displayed that humility a little more often. He has to understand, that people DO think he has it all figured out. Therefore, what he says and how he carries himself in the public eye is quite important. So far, he has done a good job of making himself out to be the young, brash, anti-authority, flamboyant pastor that feels he is above questioning from the common public. If he actually believes what he wrote above, he must make a change in the way he and his church are presented.

I’m not holding my breath…but it would be a nice start.
