    Requested worship dance party

    Rebuttal with hesitation of screening songs due to triggers of old life

    My perspective: I believe most songs are like most movies, [such that] in order to invoke feelings/emotions, it must take from the best story of all time …

    The bible

    Humans distort the story to the point that it is disordered from the original context of the bible

    Example: matrix is Jesus. R&b started from a point of expressing love, but then became over sexualized. Dance music an expression of joy, but then sexualized. Slow music to bring peace has been relinquished to sleeping and ignored. Angsty music an expression of emotional frustration and questioning, but seen as angry mosh pits.

    God can use anything to communicate with us

    We can use anything to worship Him

    Our heart posture is what God seeks in us

    Everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial. Tension. Discernment

    Appeal of leader to man is conceptually the same as man to God-man Jesus. Actual application astronomically different

    Luke 12:30-31… Do not chase worldly things like the gentiles do. Your father knows you need them. Seek first the kingdom and all will be GIVEN to you

    Not seek the kingdom and then earn the other things

    Or pay for the other thing

    Or worry about the other things like eating, drinking (Luke 12:29a)

    Or anxiety over Anything else (Luke 12:29b)

    The kingdom is not an island

    You are not alone

    God is all around you

    Attempting to have a relationship with you

    Receive it

  • Cool off ministry

    Yup. I have a meeting with her this week to discuss next steps.

    I have volunteered in just about every position at church, been at every group event offered, and special events for the past 2 years (wow tomorrow is the start of rooted so literally 2 years since we all started this journey together). Not with the intention of seeking a wife, but also we arent that old of a church. It is not part of God’s plan for me for now (hopefully not ever, but Thy will be done before my desires). I am no longer concerned about it. I do not need a wife to complete me nor validate me like i did in the past. She will be a beautiful addition to help, but if i only have the Lord, I will be satisfied.

    I may not be able to relate to the ministry of having kids, but i am a product of a mother that had 3 kids that escaped from a country where she had to come to terms with the idea that she will never see her parents or siblings (that did not escape here too) again without a high school education or formal english learning then to deal with a boyfriend who cheats on her with her childhood bestfriend and literal neighbor. I have lived a life of a tired mother on a nail salon salary without family support. Who i thought didnt love me and pawned us off to our God family, but learned this week how it tore her heart apart that she failed her children and that they did not bat an eye to leave for 3 months.
