    • One of the all-time basic questions that many have is what about all those good people — who are grounded, compassionate, generous, hospitable, just people but who are not Christian? And so I ask you: What voice are you listening to?

    Whose Voice are you Listening To?

    What are you hearing? I think these words of Jesus can even be helpful to many folks here in this church — people who instinctively do the right thing, and live the life that is worth living — gentle and powerful lives of service and joy and hope and giving and yearning and learning. These words help when I stumble and bumble and get all worked up. Benedict said that; a mixed body metaphor but it works — we know what it means. That which we take in through the ear needs to be translated by our hearts — our hearts being a way of asking: Where are you grounded?

    How do you look at the world — what gives you ultimate meaning?

    It is a little bit like the chicken and the egg — does your hearing shape your reality or your reality shape your hearing? A heart grounded in suspicion is going make you skeptical of what you hear and it will shape your outlook. You know what I mean. I find it interesting for example what people listen to and how they perceive it and then appropriate it.

    I say this humbly but I feel as if I have to say it — this is the problem I have with what I hear from the Tea Party movement — I hear fear, suspicion, hatred in some corners — and it shapes reality. It is different than political disagreement with policy. Same on the left as well. But that is just me. So what does Jesus say to you? No matter your politics, we are church, the community not shaped by unanimity of opinion but on an unswerving desire to listen and follow… and so listening for Jesus becomes the MOST important thing.

    By Whom are We Controlled?

    I love to read a passage I am really familiar with and see how God and His Spirit challenge me in new ways. Giants in your life are always signs you have arrived at your next place of victory! How do you look at the world — what gives you ultimate meaning? Overcoming your personal mind wars, whether in relationships, on the job, or even regarding your spiritual maturity, depends on the slow sip of God thoughts in your life that form your mental framework. People want to be in control and have everything go their way. Please consider the following statements pertaining to comments posted by you and other visitors to our website: They are internal, and you must call them what they are:

    Let that thought saturate your thinking for eternity. Simply refuse to sip the cups of the giants in your life. Stop drinking the sulking, negative, fearful thoughts of a giant that you are supposed to defeat.

    He won't define your victory. The drips of your own failures were poured out on Christ on the cross. He took all the judgment and punishment for your sins, so stop trying to act like your own messiah.

    Who are we listening to?

    This Goliath, the mind war you are personally experiencing, may lead you into a brand-new and exciting discovery of a world filled with the thoughts of God. Most likely you've already had the first thought that will lead to the next thought that births the new future God has intended for you. When Christ is your security and safety, your thoughts can lead to personal freedom and contentment. Listening to what you say is critically important. The words that come out of your mouth reveal whether or not your thinking and your actions are in alignment with how God views you.
