B.O.W.I

BOWI stands for ~ Big Outrageous Wild Ideas. When Jesus said that he came to bring us life and for us to have it more abundantly (John 10:10), I wonder if we are truly claiming the power behind such words? I think most humans tend to "under-live." Sure, we might have that occasional moment where we shoot for the stars, but most often we fail to launch the rocket. Sometimes we don't launch because of fear, embarrassment, doubt, and the list goes on. But what if God would grant you that one prayer, that BOWI moment? Would you take it?

During the month of September at Willowbrook I am teaching on "The Bucket List - a 30 Day Adventure." So far, we've created a pretty good atmosphere of dreaming big. Last week I challenged all of us to think about making a difference in a place called, Ukraine. Pastor Sergei and his translator, Julia, did a great job in helping us create a BOWI moment. BOWI moments change lives. To be in a place in which you must trust God for that BOWI moment draws you and God much closer together. In fact, the Bible says that it is impossible to please God without faith. That's the BOWI idea with legs on it.

So, what's your BOWI moment? What is God asking from you to do ~ in BOWI fashion?

Sound off and let's hear/see it.
