Saw a super inter­est­ing blog post a few days ago from the mar­ket­ing mas­ter giant Seth Godin.  I don’t fully agree with all of it but the idea and con­cept I think is very true.  Why do peo­ple have such a hard time with a BIG prob­lem?  I think this is also very clear and evi­dent in church prac­tices… but thats a con­ver­sa­tion for another time.

What I found so cool was not this post, but another post even more awe­somely inter­est­ing, writ­ten in response to Godins, by Scott Har­ri­son the founder of Char­ity: Water.  Scott con­nects the feel­ings of enor­mity to scrip­ture and specif­i­cally a verse in proverbs that says “with­out vision, the peo­ple parish”

Another fac­tor that plays into this whole deal as chris­tians, we are not try­ing to sur­mount insur­mount­able odds on our own.  How beau­ti­ful is the fact the Dis­ci­ples did some­thing that has never been done again in the his­tory of the World.  And yet even more beau­ti­ful is they under­stood they were not doing it on their own.

How beau­ti­ful would the church func­tion in bring­ing relief to the poor, jus­tice to the oppressed and love to the unloved if they knew who they were mar­ried too.

A lot of the things feel­ings around this really fuel pas­sion for some­thing really huge I believe God has up his sleeve.

You.
