I cannot stop laughing at a special behind the scenes video I made in preparation for one of our upcoming videos.
No, ha ha I cannot show you it yet bcuz it might ruin the fun, but I can tell you that I am sending it to our Pastor and my Co-staff for the enjoyment and edification.
AND I WILL ASSURE YOU that I will post it here for you as well after we show the ACTUAL video I am making.
TRUST ME don’t miss Sundays @ Journey…. EVER. God Is THAT Good!!
To Expound on my tweet about the Lohan/CROSS refrence, I just find it amazing the reactions such stunts and exploits like this get. First of all, in the past I have been guilty of such complaints and criticisms, however, thankfully today through revelation or common sense I had the immediate thought, well actually two immediate thoughts preventing such judgments.
1. Shouldn’t we almost cherish the thought of broken people imitating/referencing Christ or whatever you want to call it in their own messed up way? God sees and knows their hearts.
2. These people are broken and far from Christ, what should we expect? We need to shut our mouths about how inconvenient this is to our religion and open our hearts and realize this hinders the supernatural saving power of Jesus Christ a whole 0%
okay 3 thoughts..
3. I think we should be worried when our offense over the heretical, blasphemous, or inappropriate reference (whichever you might believe) to the cross pales in comparison to its timing in regards to our religious traditions
So if I could say something to Mrs. Lohan it would not be “stop trying to look like Jesus” cuz hey isnt that OUR goal? But just a little advice that “its not so much getting the outside right, but the inside” Ok, c’mon I wouldnt say that cuz its cheesy. BUT IN ALL SERIOUSNESS… Which one accurately depicts the CORRECT message of Jesus Christ better:
Disgust? Or Discipling? If they dont want to be discipled then maybe they don’t see anything life-giving in our lives… time for a self-check… less of me more of You, Jesus.
The voice of the Lord flashes forth flames of fire
The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness
the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh
The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth
And strips the forest bare
And in His temple all cry “Glory!”
What a beautiful description of the owner in who hands I securely rest. The same owner of the unending universe that ripped the darkness from the night sky with the words “let there be light”. The same author and lover of the human race that has almost spent its entire existence perverting His creation and worshiping the created, myself included. And still, the same owner of the precious tree that provided the wood for the cross that His Son would be murdered on. That same cross and murder that set me free and allowed me to crawl into these eternally safe hands forever removed from
hell,
[MY] sin,
shame,
and fear.
There are not perfect enough words to describe my perfect Savior and God.
