Matt's Chat

Ok boys, below are my notes from our chat with Matt Atkins. This is by no mean everything that Matt talked about, but I tried to get the general idea. We will be meeting at Grants place on Holly and ding Pizza and beers. If you are wanting to drink some of Grants beer, please bring him $5 so he can keep generously providing cold draft beer for us.

Matt's Chat:

Deal with your shit!
What are you insecurities?
Why is that?
Probably because you are not in control?

Learning what your vocation is vs your occupation. As in what is it you are/do VS. what is your job.
Think about focusing on vocation then figuring out what occupation can fulfill that.

John 14 & 15

Cooperation with God rather than "if I repent of my sin then God can work in my life" which is a cause and effect faith.

Are we deathly afraid that God wants to live with us?

Create a context where you and you wife can share your spiritual journey. Lear to relate as christians. What does it mean to be christ followers.

  1. Thanks Garret! That's great. And thanks for making the blog.

    I also remember some discussion about the church...the biggest "problem in the american church is salaried pastors" or something like that.

    Vine and the branches concept, being connected to Christ.
