Quote of the Day
"Coronary
Christians are like the heart in the causes they serve. Adrenal Christians are like adrenaline – a
spurt of energy, and then fatigue. What
the church and the world need today is marathoners, not just sprinters. People who find the pace to finish the
(lifelong) race.
Oh, for
coronary Christians! Christians
committed to great causes, not great comforts.
I plead with you to dream a dream that is bigger than you and your
families and your churches. Un-deify the
American family, and say boldly that our children are not our cause; they are
given to use to train for a cause. They
are given to us for a short season so that we can train them for the great
causes of truth and mercy and justice in a prejudiced, pain-filled, and
perishing world."
- John Piper, Life is a Vapor
