How the Coming of Jesus Changed The World
As you enjoy the Christmas week, I’d like to inspire you with the truth of how the birth of Jesus Christ changed the world. This particular blog is the most reprinted one I’ve ever penned.
Following is a condensed version of “Twelve Ways Jesus Christ Changed the World.”
Enjoy–and Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas: Jesus Towers Above All
Christmas is ten days away and is celebrated by more people around the globe than any other holiday.
Why?
For the next few weeks I will re-publish some of my most popular blogs. They focus on the one Person who’s most crucial to our lives–both here on earth and also after we die. He is “the Way” in both realms.
Merry Christmas.
We Must Revive the Triune Role of the Church on Earth
I was listening recently to a news anchor lament people leaving the Catholic Church. His theory about the exodus? The priests giving boring sermons that didn’t relate to people’s lives.
He’s right. Many church gatherings are routine, messages put people to sleep, and they lack a “God encounter” that excites and changes a person’s life.
But there’s more to it. The people of God–the Church–has at least three distinct roles to play in human life and culture. When any of them is missing or unclear, people wander from the faith and God’s work is diminished.
We must revive the triune role of the Church on earth.
