Description

Taking a slice from Revelation 7 and the writings of Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Ronnie speaks to how, "beauty will save the world." He says: "You can call me a dreamer. But I’m not the only one. You can call me a foolish idealist. I’m most comfortable with that. You can call me an idiot. I’ll take it as a compliment. Because I would  rather try - by God's grace try - to be hopeful and faithful, compassionate and empathetic, forgiving and loving, good and gracious - and be regarded as an idiot in this world, than to be a person who is cynical, jaded, hard-hearted, judgmental, hateful, cruel, and gleeful at the suffering of others. Jesus Christ help us all to become raving idiots who can see the wonder and dignity inherent in each and every person we meet - white, black, man, woman, gay, straight, citizen, immigrant, rich, poor, old, young - because each of these is a person made in the beautiful image of God!"
