Quotation of the Week

“This is another reason that living in proximity to those we are seeking to build relationships is so crucial. However, acknowledging this we need to recognize that, unlike most of the world, we have the freedom to choose where we live. Therefore, we need to be mindful of God’s direction in that freedom, submitting it to His greater good. As a result, many Christians live in communities that, perhaps, God has not called them to. While I would never suggest that all Christian abandon their rural or suburban communities for the neighbourhoods of the urban core, I will say that there is a clear imbalance in where Christians live, work, school, relate, etc. Someone isn’t being obedient.”

    …”I will say that there is a clear imbalance in where Christians live, work, school, relate, etc. Someone isn’t being obedient”
    Can I just say - AMEN! Too many Christians live in fear instead of obedience.
