  • Fast food. Fast cars. Fast and furious. Fast forward. Fast . . . church? The church is often idealized (or demonized) as the last bastion of a bygone era, dragging our feet as we're pulled into new moralities and new spiritualities. We guard our doctrine and our piety with great vigilance. But we often fail to notice how quickly we're capitulating, in the structures and practices of our churches, to a culture of unreflective speed, dehumanizing efficiency and dis-integrating isolationism. In the beginning, the church ate together, traveled together and shared in all facets of life. Centered as they were on Jesus, these seemingly mundane activities took on their own significance in the mission of God. InSlow Church, Chris Smith and John Pattison invite us to leave franchise faith behind and enter into the ecology, economy and ethics of the kingdom of God, where people know each other well and love one another as Christ loved the church.

    Glitter with staying power
    Color: Rainy-Rainbow, Color: Rainy-Rainbow
    Super fun and sparkly, the color is beautiful, it comes with 2 glue tubes with brushes that you use to rub the glue onto your skin in order for the sparkle to stick better and longer, made a heart shape on my arm, dries fairly quickly and washes off easily when you're done with it It sprays a fine layer and evenly, it's great for building on for more sparkle or to just have a light layer Even without the glue it lasts at least a couple hours with minimal shedding and light use, seems to have good longevity With 2 glue tubes, a refill tub, funnel and the glitter spray bottle I feel $10 is a great value considering everything you get with it, Overall I feel like it's a fantastic product and will buy again!

    Decent for the price.
    Color: Rainy-Rainbow
    The color is pretty, the bottle seems to be working well for now. The atomizer pump is so cute and makes me feel super dainty and girly! I love the xtra refill, the funnel and two glitter glues for makeup looks. The glue is good enough to hold the glitter but not too sticky where it leaves a nasty residue. So that’s a plus and it’s easy to wash off. However, the glitter does not adhere or stay in place on dry skin. I’m assuming it’ll be great to spray on the body if you have some type of oil in for it to adhere too but haven’t tried it yet. Will update next weekend.

    Love it.
    Color: Rainy-Rainbow
    This glitter is gorgeous on. Really easy to apply, sprays evenly and a good amount at once. It wasn’t a nightmare to deal with either clinging to things it fell/rubbed onto which I was pleasantly surprised by. It cleans up very well. A little goes a long way too, so it should last a while. It stayed on my body fairly well throughout the night too. I have really sensitive skin so I was hesitant to even get glitter at all. I tried body glitter 2 years ago but it was a liquid spray kind and I broke out in an intense rash all over. I also have a chronic hive condition so my skin flares up from products due to sensitivity. I did not have ANY issues with this glitter.
