91st Live Stream with Carlton Pearson - Human experience and expression

About this sermon

Experience is not only what happens to you, but what you do with what happens to you! From beating children, spouses, the game, supposed enemies or just the odds, the conflicts, wars conquests, requests and inquests go on. What's the difference in fighting, winning or just stopping? Where is the balance or where are the lines drawn? The planetary tensions are palpable, from the white house, to the school, church, court, crack or dog house. Life doesn't just happen to us, life happens thru and as us. Only we can make the difference. We must help change collective consciousness, by changing our individual ways of thinking. To repent, literally means to re-think. Let's do it together, even if it means laying aside sacred cows and vows of the past life and past world views in and of life. Dramatic change may be necessary in dramatic areas of human experience and expression. We don't just need to make a difference in the world, we actually need to make the world different, one day and way at a time. As Robert Schuller used to say, "Inch by inch, anything's a cinch"! Together we can make it happen!
