I had a friend during a recent time of sharing and study together give me a interesting thought and a fresh look at a very perplexing question being asked to this genertion. the question I guess is more of a concern really…Is it possible to be authentic and relevant while also having strategy and structure. It is also necessary to introduce strategy and structure to a movement to sustain and direct the flow of life. If we look to Jesus we can see the beginning of the church as a God birthed movement that “bucked” the current established religious system that was leading the flow of faith astray…but he formed a new authentic system of its own. I geuss it accured to me then, that we are all residing in boxes so to speak…if I am a traditionalist or a non-comformist to any school of thought…there is my box. It’s really impossible then to live totally out of the ‘box.” Only God resides outside all of the boxes of thought, because he is the creator. I also, thank a friend Mark Batterson for a great thought, “maturity does not equal conformity.” When we follow Jesus and grow in his word it is more about unpacking the box of truth he has given to us and following Jesus into a life of complete transformation! I want to be led by Jesus and be transformed into his image and likeness! This is a life of real joy, peace, and righteousness! Not conformity but total transformation!
