We (Grace Campus Ministries) don't want to be a program but a MOVEMENT. Having a program is not sustainable, but the ripples from a movement cannot be contained. (Think about waves, dropping a rock in the middle of a pond, etc...) That is why I can truly relate to the video on the blog link below... this little article really spurs me on. I like Sivers' first statement about a movement...The leader has to be doing it for his own sake - not trying to start anything.
http://sivers.org/dance-lessonsIt has never been our desire to "copy" something or just do what we were "supposed" to do. We want to be genuine and authentic. We want what we do to come straight from the heart of God for His people. If God is creator and we are made in His image, then we must do just that: CREATE! What we do must come from our gaze on God as opposed to our gaze on what's going on around us. First we have to know His heart for ourselves- we WORSHIP Him for our "own sake" (because that's what we are humans are made to do) and it's not to get people to jump on the band wagon but beause He's worth worshipping... and it IS so amazing that we hope people see that and join the "party". If you read the article and watch the video you'll see what I mean...
