Ideas often unfold for me while I’m walking. Last Thursday morning this video unfolded in my mind. It has three origins:
- The final sermon in the series on Job is coming up over Labor Day weekend. The wisdom of Job leads us to the deep, paradoxical mystery of God and reality.
- Richard Rohr’s meditations were all about paradox last week. Read my post here.
- Communicative rationality played a big part of my dissertation. The third way I describe in the video is the substance of the Kingdom of God that Jesus invited us to indwell. This is key for the missional church.
So, I decided to make this video. I’ve spent about 25 hours on it between Friday morning and this morning. I know, it seems so simple, how could it have taken so long? Welcome to the world of animation.
Let me know if this makes any sense. I have also included the audio file for the podcast listeners. Enjoy!
This is a great illustration of paradox, and potential for entering the 3rd way, tapping into that great energy that is the love of God. I see so many areas of life where this applies. The opening of the fortress walls, and making ourselves vulnerable is often the biggest barrier. I am amazed that you could do this in a weekend. It doesn’t seem simple at all. It has given me much to think about. Thank you.
Thanks, Anne.
Excellent animation of the concept. Keep on Keeping on!
