Practice Resurrection #4

Resurrection is not a theological category or resource upon which we draw and then carry into our ministry practice, as some procedural instruction manual. Christian practice is encountering the reality of God's resurrection power through the actions we take, and in which that power becomes manifest. Practicing resurrection is a dynamic process of acting and reflecting in dialogue with scripture, tradition, and other sources of knowledge. To say it another way, you can't wait for some revelation or rush of adrenaline from God to go and live for God; you just have to do it, and discover the God who was already acting and waiting to be encountered all along.
