Passion. More than money, more than meaning, more than belongings; passion is what we seek. Something that won’t just captivate our eyes and busy our hands, but something that will captivate our hearts. We don’t just seek a reason to get out of bed in the morning, but the energy to leap into what’s coming. Not just something worth dying for, but something worth living for. Something that is worthy of our energy, of our enthusiasm, something that is worthy of our sacrifice. We’re seeking something internal that fuels everything we do. We seek a Fire Within.

We make excuses when that fire isn’t there. We say that emotions are immature, that passion was never supposed to be part of our faith to begin with, that logic is enough. And then slowly the life of faith becomes more difficult, it loses energy, it lacks enthusiasm. Then we inevitably turn to other things, or mindlessly go through the same motions we always have. Without purpose, without intention, without excitement. This cannot be the life that God has called us to.

If you have no idea what it’s like to feel the fire within: this series is for you. If you had it at one point in your life but somewhere along the way you lost it: It’s time to get it back. God’s kingdom is eternal, but sometimes his people need a kick in the pants.
