“The greatest single cause of atheism today is Christians, who acknowledge Jesus with their lips, and then walk out the door and deny Him with their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelieveable.”
~Brennan Manning
This is one of my favorite convicting quotes. I first heard it on dc Talk’s Jesus Freak album, and it has stuck with me ever since. Every time I read it, I am forced to stop and think about my life and actions. Am I “doing” what I am saying? I usually have to problems sharing my faith verbally, but am I missing the mark sharing my faith “non-verbally”?
In this world of “always connected-ness” God provides us the opportunity to interact with many people throughout the day. Are they seeing Christ, or a liar hypocrite?
Let’s help to make Mr. Manning wrong on this one!
