Get ready for some questions! - Chapter 1

Here are some question I gleaned from the DVD on Chapter 1. We will watch tonight and see where God will lead us. Thought I would give you a heads up and a chance to give these some thought.

Is your day:
Unsurprising?
Simplicity?
Routine?
'til I leave the house or answer the phone!
Is your experience with God routine?
Do you want a duplicate experience or a created new experience?
Do you pray - routine - create new - expand?
Do you pray the same prayer?
Do you have a "magical prayer"?
Types of prayers:
Pray teaching
Pray lecturing
Pray gossip
Do you hide your prayers?
Is the routine just meaningless repetition?
Do you have role models in prayer?
Do you picture yourself speaking to a person in prayer?
Does scripture change your perspective of God?
If you actually saw Him - What would you say?
What would be the first words our of your mouth?
Was your relationship with God different this past week or two?
How would you like to see it change?

Hope you can stay all night!

Well, It wasn't all night. Great Chili (Frito Pie for you true Texans)! Thanks Dennis & Patty ( and Jane for the great bread).

We had some interesting discussion about our prayer life. I think we really want to have a bigger picture of God. We discussed His attributes and how He initiates and energizes our relationship with Him. We came to the conclusion that our prayer should be a continual dialogue with our Father.

Much more to come!
