Holy Moments

Excerpt from Mark Batterson post Thin Places

In my message this weekend I'm talking about a concept from Wild Goose Chase. The Celtic Christians had a name for places where heaven and earth seem to touch. They called them "thin places." The burning bush was one of those "thin places" for Moses.
