Catalyst: Donald Miller
Catalyst: Donald Miller
First off, I wish I had listened to my brother Will and read Blue Like Jazz before last year. But after having heard Miller speak at Catalyst last year, I was definitely impressed and have since read all his works. He speaks in a language I understand: evangelical but not one of those evangelicals, smart but not perfect and stuck between the Reds and the Blues of both politics and the church’s politics. So I definitely appreciate Miller in general.
Here are my notes:
Dominant influences in Western Culture: Free market economic system, Darwinian theory and the Bible.
Formula that most marketing in the world attempts to use:
- Convince you that you are not happy
- Invest money in my product so that you can be happy
Favorite quote: “Like a home schooler discovering reality…”
Matthew 6, The Message
Spirituality works like reality
Jesus’ metaphors show how the natural world reflects God and spiritual growth.
