five minutes with Dr. Cornel West

(This was clearly recorded on some dude’s VCR, but the goodness still comes through.)

As always, Dr. West says a lot, but what he has to say about the difference between Success and Greatness speaks powerfully to those of us who might be involved in Big and Successful things for God.

Dr. Cornel West is the Professor of Religion and African American Studies at Princeton University and one of the most Powerful Christian Voices we have…that harldy any of my friends have ever heard of.

To learn more about him go here.

So…anything pop out at you? Let us know by leaving a coment below.

I know this is my blog, but I was just listening to it again and the part at the end just NAILS me. Am I Truley Hopeful as oppossed to settling for Cheap Optimism. When I look at the world, am I Hopeful as oppossed to just being driven by a Rah Rah sense of how great we are as a Country, or a Church, or I am as a Persson, blah blah blah. Am I ROOTED to Hope or Swayed by Optimism?
Dang Dr. West!
