leaving the gray

a collection of my thoughts, notes from time with God, embracing the life that i have been given and yearning to ignite a generation for Christ, to awaken the apathetic, and to be a catalyst that takes Christians from luke warm to absolutely on fire, to bridge people to the love of God through relationships, to lead people to the indescribable joy of calling Jesus their Lord and Savior, to be a fully devoted follower of Christ. leaving the gray

Interesting critique of contemporary Christianity

Currently reading through "The Mosaic of Christian Belief" by Roger E. Olson and thought this critique of contemporary Christianity was interesting. While it is easy to complain about what is wrong (and that is not this author's intent), it is necessary to identify what is wrong before any positive change can be promoted to address the issue. Anxious to finish the book to see what I can glean away, and contribute to the solution in some positive and meaningful way.
