It’s All About Passion
I haven’t been to a Christian concert since college, so it was great when Kelly and I got to take the interns to Passion back in August. I say concert, but that’s not really what it is. It’s more of a conference. It’s an entire day long that has a few seessions of teaching, but also lots of worship.
One of the things that I never really get to do out here in Africa is enjoy corporate worship. There’s nothing like enjoying worship in a group of 5,000 people, all with a passion for God. And who better to lead worship than Chris Tomlin! It was the first time I’ve heard him live and he didn’t dissapoint. Another band that was there was FEE. I’ve never heard of them before, but they turned out to be great! I’m pretty sure they’re going to have a huge following in the coming years.
Along with the worship Lioue Giglio did a few sessions of teaching. I teach a class to the interns where we use a lot of his videos so I’ve seen his teachings a lot, but it was great to see him live. He just has a way of teaching the word of God, that makes me wonder if he’s teaching out of the same bible I have. It was powerful.
