Confession #12: Cardboard Testimony

Posted by Chris on Thursday, June 12th, 2008

I’m kinda taking a break on this series for the day. I was going to write something else last night, but a tweet came across twitter and I think I’d rather share the link that was in the tweet rather than what I had planned.

I follow Jason Powell’s blog and twitter. Jason Powell is the Information Technology Director at Granger Community Church. Since I have a interest in technology and the way churches use it. I follow his blog to see how Granger is using these tools. Tonight he tweeted a link to this video from Hillside Christian Church in Amarillo, TX, the video comes in via this blog.

Not quite sure the how this worked into the message, but is powerful enough in and of itself. The video is a bit short, but from what I can gather, its people sharing basically a short description of who they were before Christ, and a short description of who you are after written on the front and back of a piece of cardboard. In this time of ‘laying it all out on the table’, I thought this would be great to share with you all. Be warned, your eyes may leak.

Mine would be:

front: slaved to sin, performed to be saved & accepted.
back: adopted, forgiven, justified, changing, grace given!

What would your cardboard testimony be?

    I think anyone who watches that and doesn’t have some eye leakage isn’t human ;-)

    The song is How He Loves Us - Kim Walker / Jesus Culture. Hope that helps anyone looking.
