The Awe Factor

February 17, 2010

ConneXions Topic this weekend:  The Awe Factor of God

Facilitator:  Angie

A.W. Tozer writes:  “What comes to mind when we think about God is the most important thing about us…the most portentous fact about any man is not what he at a given time may say or do, but what he in his deep heart conceives God to be like.”

Francis Chan in Crazy Love asks some intense questions:  “If the gravest question before us really is what God Himself is like, how do we learn to know Him? …He is the Creator of both the magnitude of the galaxies and the complexity of the caterpillars.  But what is He like?  What are His characteristics?  What are His defining attributes?  How are we to fear Him?  To speak to Him?

To dig deeper, go to http://www.crazylovebook.com/ and watch the videos entitled “The Awe Factor of God” and “Just Stop and Think”

Some verses to ponder:  Romans 1:20, Ps. 19:1-4, Ex. 3:14, Col. 1:16
