Biblical faith is not about living a moral life. That’s religion. Biblical faith is not about living the “good life.” That’s capitalism. Biblical faith is about living the Godlife. Obedience, in the Biblical sense, is not “doing what you’re told.” Obedience is living relationally, even “indivisibly,” with the Holy One so that we honor, uphold, receive, and follow all that God is and all the God is calling us to become. Biblical obedience means living in the light of who God is as much as in submission to what God says. That’s obedience in relationship.

About

Avatar I'm a runner, writer, thinker, and pastor. I love to agitate people's consciences. I like to spend my time reading, running, and relaxing with family & friends.

I work as a director of community formation at Highland Park Presbyterian Church and this blog in no way reflects the thoughts or attitudes of my church. You can catch me teaching regularly at Wake Up! and Pub Night Dallas.

I use Common Prayer for Ordinary Radicals to read Scripture and pray daily, join me!
