Donald miller blue like jazz author6/1/2023 ![]() ![]() God keeps on going and going… far far far beyond where our minds can go. For those who have been following him recently and are just now hearing about Blue LIke Jazz - this is not a business book. The problem is God IS Love, is Merciful, is Just…īut he’s so much bigger than that… and by trying to push him into a particular area we are only being idolatrous… creating God to who we think he should be. Donald Miller is humorous and insightful. We have a tribe trying to prove how merciful God is… We have a tribe trying to prove how just God is… We have a tribe trying to prove how much God loves us… We try to prove just how much God is love… we try and prove just how much God is a jealous God… the list goes on. The problem is by doing this we make God only a little bit bigger than what we can imagine… when God is so much bigger than we can even imagine imagining.Īnd to make matters worse we’ve taken sides over which parts of God we like. It seems to me that the more information we get the more we try and figure out who God is… We are in an information age… we have so much information at our finger tips. But that was before any of this happened. I used to not like God because God didn’t resolve. It is as if they are showing you the way. ![]() Sometimes you have to watch somebody love something before you can love it yourself. I stood there for fifteen minutes, and he never opened his eyes. But I was outside the Bagdad Theater in Portland one night when I saw a man playing a saxophone. ![]() I never liked jazz music because jazz music doesn’t resolve.
