God-sized Dreams

Here are some thoughts from Erwin McManus' session, day 2 of Catalyst West Coast:

  • There's never been an ordinary human born yet we live the most ordinary lives.
  • Church isn't about stopping people from doing wrong, it's about unleashing people to do right.
  • Church shouldn't be a prison, it's a portal.
  • It's not about calling people to my vision, it's about awakening the God-given dream in others.
  • Before we were pounded into the ordinary, we dreamed God-sized dreams.
  • People's dreams are trapped under the rubble of their fears.
  • Choose acts of heroism no matter how small.
  • I must destroy the obstacles that prevent others from dreaming.
