Let's Do This Thing!

Just like in Saving Private Ryan, when the odds are against
us, victory is still possible.
I was really disappointed that we did not get to addressing Question 7 on our “Christians in a Changing World” reading guide. It honestly clears up so many questions brought up in class. It talks about how God has called us to bear witness at a critical point in history. Yes, our nation is not a Christian nation, but rather than sit around complaining about it, we need to actually do something. We need to make art, spread the Gospel, and love people! I don’t know about anyone else, but when I read from the article, “It is not only an exciting and interesting to be a Christian right now, it is a great responsibility and privilege,” I was filled with encouragement.

As Christians we are going on a grand adventure with ups and downs, persecution and acceptance. So lets embrace that idea. No war would ever be won or lost if the soldiers sat in their tents complaining that the battlefield didn’t have the right conditions for war. We are called, no matter what, to give it all up for Jesus. Let’s employ our humanity like Rookmakker says in order to reach out to other humans. We can fulfill this together!
