The Active or Passive Way? The Jesus Trip

In this week's episode of The Jesus Trip, John Crowder discusses the active and passive ways of the contemplative spiritual life. Basing our focus on intimacy with God, we explore the mystery of the finished works of Jesus Christ and theological principles of how faith in those finished works manifests in corresponding, co-laboring action. John shows how our focus should not be on a theology of works or a lack thereof, but rather on Christ Himself, the author and perfector of our faith.
John also introduces his new handlebar mustache in this week's episode! For more information on Sons of Thunder Ministries & Publications, visit us online at www.thenewmystics.org.

Yes, John this was a liberating vid and piece of wisdom.

I remember 2 yrs ago saying something in an email to Kathie Walters, about being initmidated by people talking about gotta go on long extended fasts and other 'disciplines' - and she sent me an email saying "You don't have to do anything - God knows where you are!" I took that to also mean that Holy Spirit is in charge of such things, and will let you know when He requires it etc.

WORSHIP WORSHIP WORSHIP - especially the "I Love You Jesus' songs - but also the high praising Him songs that can get your feet movin' and arms aswingin' - and also try get together regularly with some like-minded people to do this - but do it for an hour not jsut ten minutes Yeah - Depression get off, in Jesus' name!
