Something to think about...

Currently I am reading a book for our Sunday School class called "REVOLUTION" by George Barna. At the end of the first chapter, Barna makes the following statement that really makes me think...

Barna writes: "The United States is home to an increasing number of Revolutionaries. These people are devout followers of Jesus Christ who are serious about the faith, who are constantly worshipping and interacting with God, and whose lives are centered on their belief in Christ. Some of them are aligned with a congregational church, but many of them are not. The key to understanding Revolutinaries is not what church they attend, or even if the attend. Instead, it's their complete dedication to being thoroughly Christian by viewing every moment of life through a spiritual lens and making every decision in light of biblical principles. These are individuals who are determined to glorify God every day through every thought, word, and deed in their lives."

How many of us strive to be Revolutionaries where we view EVERY moment of life through a spiritual lens and make EVERY decision in light of biblical principles? As Chris said, there are a lot of churches filled with uncommitted people who are only there in body.

...Just something to think about!

hey thanks for reading. I found your blog on Christy's I think. I love to blog and it really helps when I am way over here. Kristen and I are having a great time but she goes back home on Sat and I have two more weeks. I am a baby as I do miss her so much.
