Color Speak, Season 4, Episode 10: Ancient Wisdom, the Saints, and Patrick

The wisdom of the early church is a gift that transcends time.

Do we truly take this to heart?

Okay, so we read our Bibles and celebrate the stories found within the pages of scripture, but how often are we lauding the examples the early church set for us?

I think if we are being honest, the protestant mindset has scripted the way we look at the saints.

Just keeping it real here.

We may appreciate some of what has been handed down through the centuries but haven't we considered much of the information dusty tomes to be kept on a shelf for appreciation from afar? Don't we know better than the generations that have come before us? Look at all the progress we have made!

As we continue to squabble over why one denomination is more right than the next. Why we know better.

Scripture aside, our denominational ethocentrism often keeps us from looking at our body as a whole, each an important member in the overall function, now, throughout the past, and into the future.

Which is why we don't look at our church fathers too closely. The latest and greatest speakers and Bible studies are much more alluring.

But what if the new is the old? What if we are missing some of the greatest testimony because we are too present, too forward focused?

Sure, we humans have made mistakes and will continue to do so. But we can take heart in one another.

I love where God is calling us to be now.

I think you will enjoy being part of our conversation today.
