James 4:8: "Come near to God and he will come near to you." In the Greek original: engísate tō Theō, kaì engíei hymîn.
Mike's track title "Just One Step" is reduction. Just. One step. Nothing more is needed for the beginning.
There are many self-help sayings about "just one step at a time". Mike imports the cultural resonance, but turns it theologically: the one step is not toward self-improvement. It is toward God.
Luke 15:20, the prodigal son: "But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him." The Father is proactive. But the son had to take the first step, get up and walk.
Mike's track is an invitation to the generation flooded with self-optimization methods. Forget the 12 steps. Take one. God does the rest. Mike's sound carries this reduction invitation.
