When I think of enthusiasm, I think of John Hasbrouck–a man of unmatched vision, passion, and zeal.  John had a unique ability to see it, believe it, and do it.  He did nothing halfway.  No wonder we had such great enjoyment in discussing together Bonhoeffer’s The Cost of Discipleship for a season on Saturday mornings.   As I write this I realize just how much John impacted my life and challenges me today to live enthusiastically.  It is no wonder:  the word “enthusiasm” comes for the construction “in theos” or “in God.”  No doubt John is experiencing a glorified enthusiasm today in the presence of Jesus.  Thank you John for your legacy of enthusiasm in my life.
