I’ve been writing a lot of blogs lately and haven’t been posting them. Does anyone else do that? Maybe I’m getting too critical of myself, I don’t know. Maybe I’m starting to care too much about what others think of me.
I think I need to start throwing things out there again, so here we go…
I was listening to Louie Giglio speak on the Passion Podcast, he was talking about the world tour…listen to what he said…
We’re all about the fact that Jesus Christ and his Fame and his Name are the thing that light up heaven…And If we want our lives to count, not just here in the few minutes that we’re on this planet. But forever! Then we want to be in that moment in eternity when Jesus just lights up all of forever. And We want to say “I had a part in that. My life somehow added some wattage to Jesus’ fame in eternity. I did what I did in such away to help the world see who he is.” And that’s what Passion is really all about.
That’s what I really what to be about too. I love the picture that Louie creates when he charges us to “add some wattage to Jesus’ fame”
I think the idea behind his statement is that no matter what we do, we need to turn the light towards and brighten the light on Jesus. We can’t lose that image in whatever we’re trying to accomplish with our lives.
So how am I turning light towards Jesus? And adding to the “wattage” that’s increasing his fame?
Hopefully we’ll be turning the light towards Jesus this weekend at the HBC men’s conference. Worship is going to be beautiful.
He is the Lord, the famous one.
Joshua 9:9 – Your servants have come from a very distant country because of the fame of the LORD your God. For we have heard reports of him
Two passion world tour dates in Europe, that’s what I’m talkin’ about…
- Paris – June 3, 2008
- London – June 5, 2008
I’m going to be very suspicious if you try to take me on a European vacation early next Summer!
Actually, that would be pretty cool. Although, as awesome as Paris would be, we’d have to go to the London one, so that you could understand a word they’re saying!
London is sweet. I went there with my college choir when we toured England. I would love to go again!
Hi buddy, I was at Passion World Tour – London last night. It was amazing. I thought it would be just cool have an awesome night of worship etc. But Louie’s preaching really stirred up in me. His preaching was one of the most powerful message I’ve heard in a very long time. I am going to download the pod cast now and listen through it all day… Hehe
