Your neighbors may have a desire to know something about Christ, they may have an interest in a godly lifestyle, but they certainly don't want to become fanatics. They see this "all-in" mindset as crazy. But that's the call of the gospel.
A lot of people want to have God around when they're in a crisis, but they aren't willing to give him control of every part of their life. I call that "the barrier of propriety." And it's an attempt to keep God at arm's length.
Radical Christianity is normal Christianity. Are you willing to be seen as extreme for the sake of Christ?
Do you ever feel like you are waiting forever for God to answer your prayers? Do you ever wonder how long you have to wait for his promises to be fulfilled? You are not alone. Even the most godly men in the Bible had to wait and even wondered if a promise would come to pass.
It is during these times that God does his greatest work in us. Learn about God's promises, why we can trust them and how they will always come to pass...always.
