The new Nooma video “Open” is out for free for the next 36 hours or so on Facebook. You can check it out here. I wonder what you think about it? Open is a great title for it because it does leave things very open, theologically. Rob Bell is almost saying that we have the ability to change God through our prayers, that we are able to be a part of the further creation. While I think this is nice on the ears and fun to think about, it has a lot of problems biblically (in my interpretation). Maybe I’m taking what he said too far, but he is certainly going down the road.
Here are some other takes on the video.
