Description

What are you passionate about? Football? Your family? Your job? Your car? Your hobby? And how does that passion show itself? What about your spirituality; are you passionate about your faith? What does that mean? What are the passion killers in your walk with God? In a thoughtful and measured set of notes, Jeff Lucas explores the topic of spiritual passion. He shows how it does not necessarily have anything to do with emotion but everything to do with commitment, reliability, and obedience. Along the way, he describes what passion meant to Jesus and to Paul, and how that might affect what it means to us today. He shares the upsides and the downsides, the joys and the dangers, and how passion can transform us.
