all our sins and grief's to bear!

everything to God in prayer.

GETTING GOD OUT OF THE BOX!
Dave Moore, September 22, 2013
FIRST GUEST:
Andrew William Smith
with “Beat is Beatitude”
From Beat is Beatitude:
Poems, Prayers & Preaching (2013)
Mathew 5:3 – 12 (NIV)
Blessed are the poor in spirit. . .
Blessed are those who mourn. . .
Blessed are the meek. . .
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst. . .
Blessed are the merciful. . .
Blessed are the pure in heart. . .
Blessed are the pure in heart. . .
Blessed are the peacemakers. . .
Blessed are those who are persecuted
because of righteousness. . .
Blessed are you when people insult you,
persecute you and falsely say all kinds of
evil against you because of me. . .
1. Let God be BIG ! Even radical !
SECOND GUEST:
Peter Rollins,
with “Salvation for a Demon”
From The Orthodox Heretic
& Other Impossible Tales (2009)
Luke 6:27 – 30 “Love your enemies, do
good to those who hate you, bless those
who curse you, pray for those who mistreat
you. If someone slaps you on one cheek,
turn to them the other also. If someone
takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt
from them. . .
Give to everyone who asks you, and if
anyone takes what belongs to you, do not
demand it back!
Matthew 25 34 – 40 “Then the King will
say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who
are blessed by my Father; take your
inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you
since the creation of the world. . . (Why?)
For I was hungry and you gave me
something to eat, I was thirsty and you
gave me something to drink, I was a
stranger and you invited me in, I needed
clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and
you looked after me, I was in prison and
you came to visit me.’ . . (What? Huh?)
“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord,
when did we see you hungry and feed you,
or thirsty and give you something to
drink? When did we see you a stranger
and invite you in, or needing clothes and
clothe you? When did we see you sick or in
prison and go to visit you?’
“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you,
whatever you did for one of the least of
these brothers and sisters of mine, you did
for me.’
2. Let God identify with those He chooses!
(And who does the King choose?)
THIRD GUEST:
Phil Madeira,
with “We All Give God the Blues”
From Mercyland:
Hymns for the Rest of Us (2012)
What kind of “God” are we depicting
as we live (and talk) in our day-to-day life?
Matthew 22:36 – 40
(A lawyer asks Jesus) “Teacher, which is the
greatest commandment in the Law?”
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God
with all your heart and with all your soul
and with all your mind.’ (quoting Deut. 6:5)
. . . This is the first and greatest
commandment. And the second is like it:
‘Love your neighbor as yourself’ (quoting
Leviticus 19:18). All the Law and the
Prophets hang on these two
commandments.”
John 13:34 – 35 “A new command I give
you: Love one another. As I have loved you,
so you must love one another. By this
everyone will know that you are my
disciples, if you love one another.”
3. Let God’s
reputation
be true!
God don’t hate the Muslims
God don’t hate the Jews
God don’t hate the Christians
But we all give God the blues!
God don’t hate the atheists
The Buddhists or the Hindus
God loves everybody
But we all give God the blues!
God aint no Republican
He aint no Democrat
He aint even Independent
God’s above all that
Bigger than religion
He’s got a better plan
The sign says Gods gone fishin’
For the soul of every man
God loves old bartenders
The preachers, the whores and fools
And that karaoke singer
Just a-ruinin “Don't Be Cruel”
The winners and the losers
The prisoners and the free
All the saints and all the sinners
Even you and even me
God don’t hate the Muslims
God don’t hate the Jews
God don’t hate the Christians
But we all give God the blues!
God don’t hate the atheists
The Buddhists or the Hindus
God loves everybody
But we all give God the blues!
