Resources: Thin Spaces: Encountering Glory
These resources are based on the work of Myra Perrine and her God Languages work.
We have been talking about how God rends the heavens and his love becomes tangibly present to us. Often we encounter God's glory when he comes after us. But what about the ways that we come after God — seeking his love and sharing our own love with God? Too often we restrict the spaces and places where we might encounter God's glory and so short-change ourselves of beauty. Timothy Keller spoke of how you could not know where the Spirit was coming from or where it was going, but you could trim your sail to catch the wind of the Spirit.
