for this Monday…
8 11 2007
I want you to think about the following question:
Who did God mean when He meant me?
What is God’s desire and dream for your life, the way you interact with others and the world around you? In what ways does He want you to engage this network of relationships and interconnectedness that we find ourselves in the midst of? Think of it beyond “more like Jesus,” beyond the cookie cutter idea of what we think that means. It’s a great answer…but what specifically does that look like to you in this world we find ourselves in? What does it feel like for you?
What about you is unique? What makes you come alive? What is it that swims deep within you?
Spend the next few days before Monday Night coming up with words and phrases and sights and sounds that describe you, that speak and sing as to who you are. Write them down on a piece of paper if you want and bring it with you. Are there certain images or metaphors that you feel describe you? What role do you feel you play in the Story swirling all around us? Bring all of these thoughts and images with you on Monday Night. Over the next couple weeks we’re going to try and do something with them.
