Open Minds

You've heard the saying, "Knowledge is power." You've experienced its truth in too many ways to count. The idea is thousands of years old, found in the Jewish book of Proverbs. Even Jesus affirms the idea that it is the truth that has the power to "set you free." That's why, when it comes to our life with God, we make knowing truth such a high priority. It is why we are so eager to understand the Bible, and why we instinctively close ourselves off to anything that challenges our understanding. But what if our unwavering commitment to our current understanding of the truth can actually cut us off from truer truth? What if it isn't being closed, but open, that leads us to truth? How would things change if we learned to keep an open mind in our life with God?
