Three Key Moments in Spiritual Life
- The Christian spiritual life has three key moments: grace, acknowledging sin, and mission.
- These are exemplified in Isaiah 6 and Luke 5.
Isaiah's Vision of God
- Isaiah saw the Lord on a high throne, with his garment filling the temple.
- This symbolizes God's transcendence and immanence: other, yet present.

- Like bright lights reveal imperfections, grace reveals our unworthiness.
