In The Battle

OK... OK... We all know I'm a huge Cubs fan and while I don't commend violence, I commend watching it... LOL

It's just too bad Barrett isn't around to do this again.

I had to add this. If this doesn't inspire you to follow God whole-heartedly, I don't know what will!!!!

Watch these clips and then answer these questions in the comments section. Notice how there is a larger story going on in the Matrix, and how Neo is just starting to get it. I love how Morpheus is calling up into the real story.

In the beginning….. Something about those words eludes our imaginations. How has
your past religious experience helped you understand the “Fellowship of the Trinity,”?
Describe how you have always understood the trinity.


John shares his story about being invited into his grandfather’s world in Eastern
Oregon. Have you been chosen or invited into something like that—a great story or an
adventure already in motion? If so, what? If not, into what would you have liked to be
invited?


Most of our best memories involve others. Our greatest joys, hopes, and dreams for life
often involve others (loved ones, family, friends, children, grandchildren). Share a good
memory that comes to mind involving others. (The memories shared may be vastly
different, don’t let someone else’s memory determine yours).



One of the realities of a larger Story is that Life is not all about you. You’re precious,
important, and valuable; you have a crucial role to play. But this story is something
bigger than you. Does that disturb, comfort, discourage, anger, or bring clarity to you?

Act 1 is coming very soon. I would expect it today or tomorrow. I have to get everything uploaded to youtube, which can take quite some time.

Thanks all and please, keep the comments coming!

Watch all three clips and then answer these questions.

Briefly, What did this stir in you? (Excitement? Intrigue? A new thought? A question about your understanding of God or Christianity?)

In what kind of Story have you found yourself? Is it a drama, epic, romance, adventure, or all of them?

Do you have all the information to understand your story or is it a pretty confusing mess?

What do you think the plot of your story is?

What are the stories you love?

Epic Prologue

Ok boys and girls. I know I've been promising to be on time with my stuff, and I really have not. I'm currently getting all the videos together, and I have to rip some of the videos from a dvd with the clips on them. I'm going to start all over again at the prologue. There will be some questions, and please ... comment on them. I learn something new each time I watch this. I would love for Joe and Mark to hear this, so they can get excited to have a retreat in September and spread the news about the story we are all currently living in.

Be looking for the first video to be posted very soon.

In the Battle,

Butch
