On this episode, we are looking at how we should view the ordinary and the extraordinary.
Endurance is your weekly spiritual workout, whether you think of yourself as a beginner, an intermediate, or advanced!
#GoDeeper
Steven begins this week’s GoDeeper by getting us to think of the extraordinary feats demonstrated during the 22 Commonwealth Games, compared to the ordinary feats that ordinary people like us achieve.
He then unpacks the passage of Scripture found in Luke 18:10-14, pointing out the differences between the two people praying in that passage. One was rather ordinary and humble, whilst the other thought himself extraordinary and was arrogant.
Steven reminds us that riches and fame, which are not ordinary, are not all that healthy for people.
He concludes that we shouldn’t strive to be extraordinary but should embrace the ordinary and mundane aspects of life.
GoDo
For the final segment, Nathan asks Steven some questions about his GoDeeper:
1. It seems as though “ordinary” and “humble” go hand in hand. Would you agree?
2. From what you said, I would gather that ordinary life and ordinary activities are quite healthy. Does that sound correct?
3. I suppose we need to be content whether we are led to live an ordinary life or an extraordinary life. Would you say that’s right?
4. Would you say you live an ordinary life or an extraordinary life?
Watch this week’s episode to find out Steven’s answers to these questions.
