This is a step in the right direction amongst other things i must say. i'm amazed at the depth of God's Kingdom...its really a well-spring of life that can be felt by those in it. i’m moved to say that truth is absolute and very few find it.

I agree that we are often familiar with the heart attitudes, but where the "rubber hits the road" is in the external actions. This area is one that many of us can probably grow in. Out of the heart should flow actions. I wonder if we sometimes purposefully put barriers in the way of the "river from within" because to let it flow out can often be difficult. But as you have said in a previous sermon, Angela, do we really value something if our actions don't match up? Something to think about..... It certainly is very counter cultural!

Everything in our culture encourages greed, duplicity, and trusting in self and work rather than God or anyone else. While we're certainly familiar with the heart attitudes, the external actions seem more allusive. This is definitely countercultural.
