God is a verb (summary)

God has been traditionally been seen by many as an unchanging and static entity, which denotes a kind of perfect “thing.”

Others argue God cannot be a noun for a noun is limited.  They see God more as a verb…

  • a God that is active and dynamic, a God that is pure energy at work.
  • a God that is about action and relationship, a God that is a constant happening, a God that, if it doesn’t change, certainly appears to
  • a God that is directly participatory, a God that can be actively experienced. 
  • a God that as an active, ongoing process, a God in a constant process of becoming
  • a God that is on a journey through us and being changed by that experience and thereby evolving. 
  • a God that is in a constantly dynamic state, a dynamic state of loving, healing, empowering and creating. God is dynamic creativity itself.

To see God as a verb changes how we see ourselves and encourages us to be dynamic like God.

The Jewish faith often depicts God more as a verb than a noun while Christians depict The Holy Spirit as a verb.
