Is Your Church Too Safe?



How can we feel good and be allergic to self denial?
Jesus is not safe, nice, or wants us to default on the side of caution.
Jesus is bold, daring, dangerous, holy and He is not safe.

Are we free enough to dance in the Spirit or does pride keep us from joining?
Life is God-breathed and Spirit-soaked in God's thick deep presence.
The sounds of heaven is listening to Jesus and beholding His beauty.
I am speechless and filled with astonishment.

Earth is heaven's womb, can you hear heaven's music?
Love is everywhere as creation sings to us.
Life is pregnant with wonder as I fall to my face and pray.


(Reflections from reading Mark Buchanan Your Church is Too Safe)
