Somewhere along the way we have subtly and tragically taken the costly command of Christ to go, baptize, and teach all nations and mutated it into a comfortable call for Christians to come, be baptized, and listen in one location.

Being a member of a church means realizing that we are responsible for helping the brothers and sisters around us to grow as disciples of Jesus. In the same way, they are responsible for helping us. We desperately need each other in the daily fight to follow Christ in a world that's full of sin.

I could not help but think that somewhere along the way we had missed what was radical about our faith and replaced it with what is comfortable.

What drives passion for getting the gospel to all people is not guilt, it's glory.

God actually delights in exalting our inability. He intentionally puts his people in situations where they come face to face with their need for him.

The very first word out of Jesus; mouth in is ministry in the New Testament is clear: repent.

Christianity is radically different from every other religion in the world.
