A 365-day journey through personal and ecclesial upheaval

What can be shaken
is being shaken.

Holy discontent breaks the old open; the wilderness disorients; new bearings come; and we are re-rooted on the far side. A map for the upheavals of your own heart and your own church — and the kingdom that cannot be shaken.

What can be shaken

The God whose voice shakes the heavens

At Sinai, God's voice shook the mountain until the people trembled. But the letter to the Hebrews reaches for a greater promise: Yet once more, God says, I will shake not only the earth, but also the heavens. Then the writer stops to read the meaning of that one phrase, yet once more. The shaking, he says, is a sifting. God shakes in order to remove the things that can be shaken — the made things, the temporary scaffolding — so that the things which cannot be shaken are left standing clear.
