“I have an unquenchable desire to slow down and find my life going deeper in my walk with Christ. I want to meet him in the depths of my soul, away from the stress and press of everything on top. A relationship with Christ is the key to fulfilling our deepest longings. All of life is about filling the void that sin and separation from him have created within. Filling the emptiness with piles of things, earthly friendships, satisfying experiences, and sensual encounters ultimately proves to achieve less than what we had hoped for. Christ is the only one who fits.” WantSoulLife IsDesireChristSinWalksChristianityAchieveKeysFitProveStressDown AndPressesLongingDepthDeeperSeparationMy SoulSensualEncountersEmptinessSatisfyingVoidFulfillingSlow DownFilling Author:Joseph Stowell
“The real test of your Christianity is not how pious you look at the Lord's table on Sunday, but how you act at the breakfast table at home. If it takes two cups of coffee to make you fit to live with, you had better go to the mourner's bench.” IfsLooksTwoRealHomeChristianityLordFitTestsTablesCoffeeCupsSundayBreakfastHypocriteBenchesPiousCoffee Cup Author:Vance Havner
“Therefore, when I look for a church, I look for the music that best fits me and the programs that best cater to me and my family. When I make plans for my life and career, it is about what works best for me and my family. When I consider the house I will live in, the car I will drive, the clothes I will wear, the way I will live, I will choose according to what is best for me. This is the version of Christianity that largely prevails in our culture. But it is not biblical Christianity.” WayLooksCultureHouseChurchChristianityCareersPlansCarFitClothesProgramMy FamilyVersionsBiblical Author:David Platt

“Really unreflective people are now inwardly without Christianity, and the more moderate and reflective people of the intellectual middle class now possess only an adapted, that is to say marvelously simplified Christianity. A god who in his love arranges everything in a manner that in the end will be best for us; a god who gives to us and takes from us our virtue and our happiness, so that as a whole all is meet and fit and there is no reason for us to take life sadly, let alone exclaim against it; in short, resignation and modest demands elevated to godhead” PeopleGivingEndsReasonWholeChristianityClassVirtueMiddleFitDemandIntellectualMiddle ClassNo ReasonModestHis LoveModeratesResignationAdapted Author:Friedrich Nietzsche
