Thinking Out Loud About Faith

Do you want a guarantee of safety and normality or a possibility of a disruption that will lead to change?

• If you want the former, that means you aren't exercising faith. 
• The latter requires risk.  That risk is called faith.  It is more exciting than status quo!  
• People don't mind watching your faith in action, so long as they don't have to put their own on the line.  This dynamic affects most church services, especially the altar times.
