You know when people send you postcards from far away places and write things like, Wish you were here? Well on Tuesday night, I seriously prayed for everyone watching online and those across borders and sincerely said to myself, I WISH YOU WERE HERE. Because when we all get together and worship and pray together, there’s something crazy that happens… we are changed.
Okay, okay, not like our bank accounts increase or our relationships are healed, but more of a quiet storm of change that effects our view of life. Tuesday night was tough for me because at the core of Isaiah 58 I felt like it was written for so many of us in the church. I hope I wasn’t the only one Isaiah spoke to. In fact, I’m attaching the video so God’s word can pierce us to our core. Once pierced, I pray we take action to becoming the people God wants us to be.
Marked by love,
B
*PS: Don’t forget to do you homework! If you’re watching online, you still are responsible for it. For crying out loud, I even gave it to you for FREE. Now you have to do it! 😉
Thank you so much for this x
I was finally able to tune in from Illinois as long as my eyes stayed open. Awesome stuff. Thank you!
Thanks so much Bianca – wonderful lesson 🙂
Question: Why don't you add a paypal link so people (you know, the foreign weirdos) who are watching online and who are willing to pay or want to make a donation towards the cost can do so? Maybe a halfway option between the free and paid debate? Just a thought. Loving your work as always 🙂
OMG! I was hollering Amens to you all night through my computer…it was such an on time wurrdddd! I so wish I was there. I was just reviewing my homework last night 🙂 Thanks for sharing it with us online. It is greatly appreciated.
The spoken word guy who came out and recited (ad libbed?!) the Beautiful poem brought me to tears. I'm having trouble with the homework, it's hard! Really tough stuff to tackle, but I'm grateful it was posted online! Thank you!
And I think Suzanne's idea of a paypal donation link is a pretty good idea! You could put it up on your blog, it's really easy to do yourself. 🙂
I was balling the whole service. Straight to the heart and I LOVED it Bianca! 🙂
I just finished watching the study.. wow… God has brought so many things to my attention. I have been going through the religious motions and wondering why things aren't working out… because my heart is not in it, my mind is not in it, my actions are not true. Thank you for posting it. God bless you!
Bianca, thank you for being transparent & showing us how to do the same. It is so easy to get caught in the Christian rut, and I'm guilty of it. It's time to get out and stop being selfish. James 3:16 God is truly speaking through you!
I came home late from work and not feeling well so I tuned in online in my 42″ t.v. in my living room. Hubby even watched Evan and was really blessed. He said maybe he can go with me next week cause he saw guys there…I told him No.
It is true that we can worship him in spirit and in truth cause I was kneeling on my couch crying out to God for repentance and change. I cried some more cause 4 years ago when we lost our home God gave me this verse on Isaiah 58:8, 11
Then your light shall break forth like the morning, Your healing shall spring forth speedily, And your righteousness shall go before you; The glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard. [11] The LORD will guide you continually, And satisfy your soul in drought, And strengthen your bones; You shall be like a watered garden, And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.
awww God bless your heart B! thanks so much for posting this love!!! I'm hoping to be able to watch live next week!!! xo
Thank you for this! I watched Tuesday night from TN and it was worth staying up for!! It was a huge blessing to me!
Thank you so much for posting this video.
Thank you, Bianca for your teaching. A few profound statements you made that grabbed me: 1) Justice is responding to a need and acting on it and that it's not just a mind-set, it's action oriented; 2) There are two things that matter most: 1) Are you God-centered? 2) Are you relational?
Word!
WOW! From beginning to end, this was simply amazing. You have no idea how much I needed to hear this today (but God certainly did). I am so grateful that He is using you to heal and shed light on His word. Thank you.
Deep, challenging study Tuesday night Bianca. Can't wait for next Tuesday.
gracias, obrigada, dziÄ™kujÄ™, danke schön!
Advantageous Blog! I appeared to be simply debating that there are lots screwy outcomes at the problem at this point you purely changed my own perception. Thank you extremely much an ideal write-up
This was amazing, thank you for putting all of this into words. You are so right on so many points, especially in regards to today's youth. They want to see our beliefs put into action, not just hear about them. This message touched me to the core. Your analogy of the Carl's Jr. hamburger was such a great word picture. I want to share this with my family. Bless you Bianca, keep it coming.
