Are you applying it?
This weekend in church we did something we’ve never done before - we applied it.
We didn’t just talk about a concept, we actually took the time in service to practice what we were preaching. As a community we had been talking about “brokenness” and this week we practiced repentance, surrender, and being made whole.
There were tears, kneeling at the altar, and lots of crying out to God.
I don’t share this to boast, but instead to ask you: Are you applying the faith or just listening to others talk about the faith?
One of my favorite equations is this:
Information + Spirit-led Application = Transformation.
Said another way - transformation only comes on the other side of you choosing to apply the concept to your life.
One of the things that makes the Spirit & Truth weekends so powerful is that it is really a weekend full of application. And while the information is good - the application is transformational.
So, I’ll leave you with the same question I started you with: Are you applying it?
