The Power of Lament

Spirituality has a very intellectual side to it, which is wonderful for people who like to think. But, there’s also a really deeply felt aspect of spirituality. This is the part where you need to use not just the part of the brain that’s logical, but the part that’s creative, aesthetic, and is rich with feeling – there’s emotion to it. The part of the brain that is more experiential than it is analytical. ….faith is the stuff of mystery.

Belonging To The Lord

God loves us and is for us. On some level, there should be a gesture in our souls that we want to say, as Paul said, we want to live pleasing to the Lord – we want to respond back. The Bible says we can love the Lord our God with all our hearts, minds, and strength. In other words, there’s a place for us to be intentional about our response to God – that we can love Him back.

Making Room For God

I wish spirituality was really simple, real easy, but it’s not. When you’re honest about it, much of life is jacked-up with complexity .
