Before we jump back into our conversation with Rev. Tom Smith, we talk about mentors and the role that they have had in our lives. This leads us to talk about the importance of formation that moves beyond our heart and into the practices in our lives. Then, Tom begins the second part of our conversation with a story about someone who was working to find real faith that played out in all areas of life. And then this gem… “I have accepted Jesus into my heart, but how do I get him into my penis.” We also get to hear about how the outdoors play an important part in formation for Tom and others.Resources:Good news for the poor and the rich(we were unable to find this book)<a href="https://www.amazon.com/One-Size-Doesnt-Fit-All/dp/0800756991">One Size Doesn't Fit All: Bringing Out the Best in Any Size Church</a><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Raw-Spirituality-Rhythms-Jesus-Life/dp/0830835881/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=Tom+Smith&amp;qid=1570738849&amp;refinements=p_lbr_one_browse-bin%253ATom+Smith&amp;rnid=1000&amp;s=books&amp;sr=1-2">Raw Spirituality: The Rhythms of the Jesus Life</a>Tom has an open invitation for MMP pastors and kingdom leaders to come to South Africa and explore the wilderness with him and share a BBQ.
