Synopsis
In this episode, Pastor Brent explores the story of Moses and the burning bush to invite us into a more expansive, untamed, and transformative relationship with God. Through fresh insights from this familiar narrative, we'll discover how to encounter God in the wilderness places of our lives and in the wildness of the world around us.
You'll learn:
- How to break free from narrow, restrictive views of God and embrace a more dynamic and mysterious divine presence
- Why doubts, questions, and wilderness experiences are a normal part of the faith journey
- How to cultivate a deeper connection with nature as a way to encounter God in your daily life
- What it means to stand on "holy ground" and see the sacredness in all things
- How to push against boundaries that exclude or oppress and live out a more justice-oriented faith
By the end of this message, you'll have practical tools and inspiration to rewild your own understanding of God. You'll be equipped to seek God in unexpected places, stand up for what's right, and ground yourself in the sacredness of the earth. Most of all, you'll be empowered to take your next faithful step on the journey of following the wild, untameable God who invites us all to take off our shoes and come home to our truest selves.
