But the cross is not merely a physical spectacle for the eye. No, its greater glory is in serving as a spectacle for the ear of faith. So, in Colossians 2:15, Paul tells us that what you could not see with your eyes was the spiritual spectacle of victory it represents. And in Galatians 3:1, Paul says the preaching of the cross is the re-celebration of the spectacle of the cross, as if it were portrayed on a prominent city billboard. That’s what preaching Christ means. It’s the recapitulation of the divine spectacle of Christ, in the local church, over and over throughout time. But it’s a preached spectacle — a spectacle now, not for the eye, but a spectacle for the ear. If then you have been raised with Christ [that’s the condition — an inner man that has been resurrected from the dead — if that has happened, if you are regenerated, then], seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

The document proposes moving Gaza's civilian population to tent cities in northern Sinai, then building permanent cities and an undefined humanitarian corridorThere are many temptations church leaders face to make the Sunday gatherings of the church as visibly spectacular as possible. The church, having been tempted to appeal to the spectacle industry, starts taking on the vibe of a theater: lasers and neon lights and sermon trailer videos and fog machines. We can over-index on visual production. We want to be excellent in what we do (yes, absolutely) and we want to be creative too (certainly) all while being careful not to leave the impression that we’re simply trying to impress eyes. No! The work of ministry is to persuade hearts — through the ear — to treasure unseen realities.

These questions are meant to put our media diet and our spiritual affections in the same conversation, because that’s where they belong: in the same conversation. Our attentional drift will show up in these areas. The effects of our media diet will show up in these honest answers. 4. Church leaders, keep leading ears into unseen glories.

Representational Image. Hebrews 1 is one of my favorite portraits of Christ, in the glory of his atoning sacrifice for sinners.

And so, we return again to Hebrews 2:1: I have a few takeaways and thoughts on what this means for our own lives and for how we lead Sunday gatherings.
