The Gospel is More Than a Story →
“We must return to these stories and events to remember not just the Bible stories, but the story that contains them all—the One Story of God’s incomprehensible, outrageous acts of redemption, the stories of a God gathering a people for his name. Here in its pages appear fierce and unlikely heroes, terrifying battles, pilloried prophets, resistant saints, miraculous healings, a...

Jon Acuff: More words of wisdom →
This whole thing hit me pretty hard.
Awesome doesn’t let the crowd determine the size of the performance. Awesome gets up for 2 people or 200. Awesome writes great books even if no one is going to read them. Awesome sweeps store floors when no one is looking.
Awesome can’t help itself.
Awesome has a huge heart. And that’s what it always plays too.

(Don't) Grow Up →
Why childlike imagination is the key to mature faith.
“I often wonder if our God-given ability to imagine— what children do naturally—is the discernment tool for apprehending and engaging Godʼs mysterious movements in the world.
When you consider that God made this world out of His imagination and that God created us with the capacity to imagine, doesnʼt it make sense that this faculty,...

Being Single: Trying To Write A Love Story →
goodwomenproject:
I have never had a boyfriend. Officially.
Yeah, there have been some crushes that have turned out to be mutual but they didn’t go far. Not as far as everyone else’s relationships did.
As I look back I really believe God was the one that made them stop. He always made something happen right before things would go to the next level. I have stories to prove it. But I know he did...

Knowing You (All I Once Held Dear)
All I once held dear, built my life upon
All this world reveres, and wars to own
All I once thought gain I have counted loss
Spent and worthless now, compared to this:
Knowing you, Jesus, knowing you.
There is no greater thing!
You're my all, you're the best.
You're my joy, my righteousness
And I love you, Lord.
Now my heart's desire is to know you more
To be found in you, and known as yours.
To...

How Artists View Theology →
Interesting thoughts by Phillip Tallon, although it’s less of “how artists do theology” than an appreciation of a particular artist’s take and a mindset of moral gratitude.
