The Challenge

What if you actively sought to encounter God every day? How would you do that? What would your life look like? What would your world look like?

The Bible provides thousands of years of history of man’s encounter with God… from the intimacy of Adam and Eve’s relationship with God in the Garden to the disciples fellowship with the risen Lord. And there is everything in between and beyond.

We see God actively pursuing and redeeming his creation, intersecting the lives of ordinary men and women in ordinary circumstances. We see a God who speaks to us through His word, His creation, through believers, through unbelievers, through our circumstance and through the supernatural and miraculous.

Are we seeking? Watching? Listening? Prepared?

On March 2, 2007 Travis challenged the BRT class to seek and listen. The Challenge is to actively seek the risen Lord, to encounter God. From there, we expect the extraordinary. The tactical “assignment” was to write down, on one side of paper, your “questions for God”… to speak to God. On the other side, to write down what you hear. Then, report back what happened.

God promises us if we seek we shall find.


The class seemed engaged. Will anyone complete the assignment?
