I was just looking at my calendar and realized I hadn’t posted in a week and a half. I was afraid that I might begin the slack and not post and I apologize. I really enjoy getting my thoughts and feelings out.

I taught a message that I think we don’t hear enough in our churches today. Some how we missed the point of Christianity somewhere along the way. Romans 5:1-11 talks about how we are saved and the process (of you will) that God went through so that we could spend eternity with Him. My message in a series called Authentic Faith (thank you to Andy Stanley) was called God Really Loves You. We looked at what God did as He showed His love for man kind, He justified us by the blood of Christ and in doing so reconciled us to Him. This is a powerful point often missed. While we were still sinners (I’m talking to Christians) He died for us (the UNGODLY people that we were) and still today He died for those who still are ungodly and in need of His justification, grace and mercy. If the world only heard the church say that. What could happen if we were the church that God calls us to be, real Christ-followers.

As I continue to re-process my Christian education (a great education from Florida Christian College) and put it into real life Christianity not academic Christianity, I am faced with truths I’ve never understood before. No its time to get off my lazy duff and do something about it. I challenge you to do the same, whoever you are out there reading this stuff.

On a side note, if anyone is reading these posts drop me a comment about what you think I am talking about or how you have looked at ideas and thoughts that I am exploring. As iron sharpens iron, so men sharpen men.
