How We Live Our Lives Tells People Something

We cannot make anyone believe in God or the truths of His word.  However, if people see the reality of God in our lives—if they see that we have a genuine relationship with God that makes a significant difference in how we live—that can be extraordinarily profound and persuasive.  What is “how you live your life” telling people?

Coming To Know Jesus, Not Religion

If you say, “I’m not a fan of the power plays and politics and some of the antics that I see in organized religion,” you might be interested to know that Jesus wasn’t happy about that stuff either.  Christianity is not really about perpetuating an organized religion, at it’s heart, it’s about coming to genuinely know the living Jesus Christ.

Christianity, A Relationship

Throughout my life I have heard the Christian faith spoken of as a relational matter.  The understanding of Christianity is that we are invited into a relationship with Christ.  Our connection with Jesus is first-hand, it’s personal, it’s vital.  I like how Ravi Zacharias puts it:  “The gospel is an invitation to a relationship, not a legal summons to a hearing.”
