"That Vertical Lifestyle Pt.1: w/ Heath King" S4 Ep17

<p>Sometimes similar&nbsp;to&nbsp; Mary and Joseph (in Luke 2:41-46), we can lose Jesus in Church! &nbsp; Certain horizontal dogma and dimensions can cloud us from the VERTICAL FOCUS and from an undistracted gaze upon Heaven.&nbsp;“Vertical” Christianity makes a connection between the individual and the Holy – from you to God.&nbsp;“Horizontal” Christianity makes a connection between the individual and&nbsp;<em>everything and everyone around you.</em></p><p>Many contemporary worship expressions tend to be horizontal, building on community and actively engaging everyone in common human interests. Songs that are used in horizontal worship don’t talk about “Him” or “The Eternal”, they talk about “we” and “us”. The Holy may not be treated as a desired connection to be sought by each individual, but instead center on our earthly interests. While we need both, the VERTICAL is to be established first and prioritized (Matt 6:33). Have we gotten so Horizontal that our individual walk and corporate expressions fail to get "the lift" and the LIFE of Christ in its fullness?</p><p>In this episode of Keep It 100, we talk about this subject and have a conversation with Gospel Artist and Worshipper, Heath King.</p><p></p><p>Website: <a href="http://www.seanandchristasmith.com">www.seanandchristasmith.com</a></p><p>Facebook:&nbsp;@seanandchristasmithministries</p><p>Instagram:&nbsp;@revseansmith&nbsp;@mrschristasmith</p><p>Twitter:&nbsp;@revseansmith</p>
