A few more notes on Graham Cooke

My friend Pam has shared her notes with me from the second night of Graham Cooke's teaching. Here's the stuff I missed but she got.
  • Frustration is critical these days. Frustration is a catalyst.
  • Frustration is designed to get you in the mood to explore the next place.
  • Frustration is God messing with your ease and comfort zone.
  • The challenge from the Lord to the church worldwide is, “Bankrupt me if you can!”
  • God does not need to explain himself to us – he expects obedience, he expects a yes from us.
  • Wisdom is the capacity to know how God thinks, how he perceives, and how he likes to do things
  • We are returning to our spiritual roots these days.
  • Become heart people and stay heart people. It’s a heart affair with God, not a head affair.
  • Wisdom is the capacity to know how God thinks, how he perceives, and how he likes to do things.
  • Trust God to tell you if you going the wrong way.
  • Maturity doesn’t need reassurance in every step.
  • If God is saying nothing, he’s happy with you.
  • God is relentless about loving you.
I am still processing what I learned. It sometimes takes awhile, Graham's teachings are usually really insightful and impactful (is that even a word?).

In any case, I will write when I know what to say.

If you would like to hear Graham Cooke at a speaking engagement, go to GrahamCooke.com and check out his schedule, see if he'e coming to your area. If not, check out his store for his books and some teachings on CD.

    I see nothing biblical about these notes. Your time would be much better spent reading your bible.
