Chapter 1 -- Stop Praying

I suppose we'll just comment back and forth on the each chapter...

Online I found some questions, maybe to get us started...

1. What's your reaction to the video?
2. Why are we prone to forget about God even though He is so great?
3. How can we remind outselves of His greatness and glory each day?
4. Do you agree with AW Tozer when he writes, "Whatever comes into your mind when you thinka bout God is the most important thing to you." Why or Why not?

  1. Okay so 350,000,000,000 galaxies is insane BUT then the catepillar has 228 separeate and distinct muscles in its head! Wow...

    Why are we... err Why am I prone to forget God even though He is so great? Seriously look what HE has created. Those are only two small examples in the grand scheme of things. I don't know much about the human body (Anna M) but it in itself is a complex creation.

    "The heavens delcare the glory of God..." Why don't I? On page 28, Chan says, "I sometimes struggle with how to properly respond to God's magnitude in a world bent on ignoring or merely tolerating Him. But know this: God will not be tolerated. He instructs us to worship and fear Him."

    Did you ladies watch the "Just Stop and Think" video on his site?

  2. I'm adding to my thoughts...

    Okay so moving onto page 30. "We have seen how He is the Creator of both the magnitude of the galaxies and the complexity of caterpillars. But what is He like? What are His characteristics? What are His defining attributes? How are we to fear Him? To speak to Him?"

    Good questions Francis Chan. Let's see...
