Passages...

I’ve been listening to the Mosaic series “Passages,” where Erwin McManus will take a particular passage from Scripture and discuss how God is speaking to him/us through it. That’s really not at all what I was expecting…

I was thinking of ‘passage’ in the sense of moving from one place to another. And “passage” is a kind of romantic way to phrase it, in the sense that one “takes passage” on an ocean steamer to go adventuring off into some far-away, exciting place.

There seem to be many such ‘passages’ recently. Toph is off to Canada, Brady to Virginia, Chris to Orlando (!), Chad to Azusa, Andrew to West Valley (well, perhaps not SO romantic…). Passages… probably leading to metamorphosis, growth, change… I think about the new frontiers that Ryan is scaling at Crossroads…

And I wonder what God is saying to us in these passages…
