Day 34 and I'm just back from one of our leadership groups where I had fun stirring the pot. Led with the question "is the Bible absolute truth?" what followed was a great discussion with many side roads. Great fun.
What was so great about it was seeing mature Christ followers, most of them older than me, grappling with new ways of looking at truth and new ways of interpreting truth.
There was energy, enthusiasm, vision and honest critiquing within the room ....and too soon we had to stop.
It's what seekers of truth always bring and its what intentional followers of Jesus always do. We always seek. Not because we don't know truth or haven't found in Christ the truth - but we always want to go deeper and that deeper always involves more truth, greater truth, bigger truth.
Intentional followers of Christ - are seekers. Always.
St. Paul put it this way "I press on so that I many lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus".
Tonight, today was about laying hold of Christ - who is Truth.
