the shack series continues

Posted on December 4, 2008November 9, 2023 by Norm

Sermon series continues. This Sunday Chris Fortin will be giving the message on the theme The Garden of Your Soul  (Matthew 13:1-23). It corresponds to chapter 9 (A Long Time Ago, In A Garden Far, Far Away). 

Mack’s gaze moved over the garden that surrounded them. ‘But it really is beautiful, and full of you, Sarayu. Even though it seems like lots of work still needs to be done, I feel strangely at home and comfortable here.’ … Sarayu stepped toward him until she had invaded his personal space. ‘And well you should, Mackenzie, because this garden is your soul. This mess is you! Together, you and I, we have been working with a purpose in your heart. And it is wild and beautiful and perfectly in process. To you it seems like a mess, but to me, I see a perfect pattern emerging and growing and alive – a living fractal.’ (p.138)

Since I am not giving the message, I don’t know exactly where and how Chris will present this message. But that is part of the mess. This message series itself is wild and beautiful and perfectly in process. We’ll see how the Spirit works in and through it!

This is Chris, by the way…

… with egg on his face.

think about it!

God proved His love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, “I love you.

— Billy Graham
