This Sunday: What we talk about when we talk about God. Ep1 - Superbeing

This Sunday we will be talking about one way, a very common way actually of viewing or thinking about God,

God as a super being…
 
One example of this is when people tend to cry out to God to come and intervene, ie. 'If you are up there God, please come and help me with my exam"

This view basically places God as a bigger, better, perfect version of ourselves. For example, if we can know, then God knows everything, if we can love, the God loves perfectly.

This super being lives out there, and comes down and intervenes and rescues every now and again, if we pray, sing, worship etc.

The question then, if this is our view of God, our language for describing God, what does that do to our day to day lives? Our churches?
 
Have a SUPER DAY… and see you on Sunday, 18:00, Alpine
