What is the best way to handle the evil trends around us. Sometimes I think we are like the frog in the pot with the temperature slowly rising. We do not think about how our culture is changing. Are we preparing the next generation to be faithful? Am I praying fervently enough? What will it take for the lost to see their need for Christ? But Jesus is still King of kings and is moving history toward a final conclusion. Let’s encourage each other to continue doing good, regardless of the news and what the critics get caught in their idle chatter. The Spirit has brought us this far and will not leave us in the dark.
“A faith without some doubts is like a human body with no antibodies in it. People who blithely go through life too busy or indifferent to ask the hard questions about why they believe as they do will find themselves defenseless against either the experience of tragedy or the probing questions of a smart skeptic. A person's faith can collapse almost overnight if she failed over the years to listen patiently to her own doubts, which should only be discarded after long reflection.” - Tim Keller
