well, I was running channels tonight and came across a speaker
with what I thought was an Indian accent. I began listening to his
message and teaching, it was a Q and A session, and my spirit began to
stir with such a fire and a passion. It was a guy named Ravi Zacharias.
I had never heard of him and come to find out, he was born in India and
is a Christian speaker. I called my husband to the room to hear Ravi
teach, and it turns out that he had heard him on the radio a couple
times and knew of his ministry.
The question that really got me was when someone asked about the state
of the church. His answer, concerning the church in America, was that
it had allowed a shallowness to creep in --and that a failure to think
has caused that shallowness. He also spoke of a younger generation that
is hungry to think. It was such a precious thing to me to hear the Lord
speak thru relevant voices -- to speak so much that has been burning in
my heart in recent years. That has been my hearts cry concerning the
current church -- that people in the church need to THINK.
That's what "selah" is all about in the scriptures.
sorry, but I am just so moved by the teaching, the truth, the walking
thru thought processes as we follow the Spirit thru the Word of God,
the confirmation of so many witnesses past and present. I am gonna try
to find some of his articles online to read. If you have a link, please
post it here.
I minored in Philosophy at a secular
university, but I have never had the privilege of listening to a
philosophical thinker that walks thru real and relevant questions about
life with Christ at the forefront and his Spirit along side. It was so
refreshing and truly blessed me. And to hear him refer to revivals in
China and now India was unbelievable. God has a whole network of
activity that He is revealing and interconnecting. I love him so much.
He is just the most fascinating and beautiful God and friend.
so yeah... I really enjoyed hearing this Ravi guy ^_^
