At some point, we must cease merely talking about making disciples and ask if we are ourselves real disciples, and then how in the world do we help others become real followers. At some point, we must cease talking about how the church has failed to give a rip about the world and ask if we really give a rip, and then love with actions and not just words. Talk is good... and necessary... but there is a point at which talk becomes cheap. I have an idea for a great experiment: What if Christians were put under a moratorium on speaking about God for one year, and could only show God but not talk about him -- American Christians would go nuts.
That puts my life into perspective right there - too much talk and not enough action. Help me, Lord, to get up off my butt and love people.
Peace. Fran is the leader of the revolution today.
