Come higher...

After watching Bullhorn (Rob Bell, Nooma), we had some discussion about the most effective way to reach people for the kingdom of God.

Although we are generally and collectively brilliant, we did not reach any definative conclusions. We did agree that God is the author and perfector of our faith (Hebrews 12:2). That is to say, that He alone can reach people. And yet, by some inexplicable means, He chooses to use each of us, His children.

So...let's go higher together, as one.

Check out these scriptures, beginning with the cross:
John 12:32 "But I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself"
Hebrews 4:16
Isaiah 6:1-8
Acts 7:54-60
Revelation 4-5 (can you stop there?)

Pray for God to open the eyes of your heart (not just a somewhat hokey song, but the very words of God--Psalm 119:18)
