The heart does not respond to principles and programs
It does not seek efficiency but passion
Jesus so often taught and related to people by telling parables and asking questions
Something calls to us through our experiences
It awakes a yearning for intimacy, beauty, and adventure
It fuels our search for meaning, for wholeness, for a sense of being truly alive
Our heart of hearts is the passion of our life
We can not hear his voice if we have lost touch with our heart
The true story of each person is the journey of his or her heart
Jesus spoke his strongest warnings about people who had a loss of heart (mostly about the religious people)
For many of us, our faith is more lie a series of problem that need to be solved
We see a problem and tinker with our outer lives
We ask what are we suppose to be doing? -
Luke 10:25
Jesus did not respond with a set of instructions
Key Phrase: Jesus spoke his strongest warnings about people who had a loss of heart
