We live in an increasingly disconnected world. While everyone is walking around with a device which allows for instant information and communication, we are becoming more and more disconnected from one another. We are communicating more by text messages. There is less phone conversation, not to mention face to face conversation.

I have worked with people that are smart, religious, theological, powerful, determined, weak, confused, lost and everything in-between.  The one common denominator of those who find the healing, restoration and freedom that they are looking for is if they are simply willing.  If someone is willing to keep the field open instead of being closed minded to what God is doing, then they can move forward.  If they can’t, they won’t.

Have you ever wondered where some of our deep beliefs about God actually come from? Or better yet, have you ever taken the time to ask Jesus to reveal some of the lies that you believe about him? I thought that might get your attention.

Could it be possible that some of the things you and I have learned about God could be false, or only partially true? I am one of those guys that that isn’t afraid to turn over a few rocks in search of the truth. Honestly, sometimes it feels risky…you know, thinking that at any moment a group of law-abiding Christians are going show up and start chucking rocks at me.

You are the hero of your story.  We don’t always feel this way, but it’s true.  Often, we are fearful that we are not worthy or do not have what it takes to play an important role.  Sometimes, in response, we will hide, terrified that someone will find us out or on the other end of things, we strut around with our chest out like rooster, comically portraying a false sense of confidence, hoping people will buy the facade.  Either reaction is not truthful to who we are.
