World Theology

We all crave love. We try to fill the void inside with any number of poor substitutes. We seek validation from empty outlets. We're thirsty for compliments. We change who we are to impress people who aren't looking and don't care.

Ever since Jesus' commission to make disciples in his name, Christianity has transformed lives and the world at large. To those watching, it must have looked like an upstart religion led by a group of men, most of whom were martyred for their beliefs. The voice of secular culture today is no louder and no more indulgent than it was in those days. And yet much of the Western church has settled for becoming just another mass media market that's adding to the noise, instead of a movement that continues to turn the world upside down.

The fantasy worlds of some of our favorite books are not as far away from real life as we might think. The spiritual world of the Bible is dense.

WALKING IN LOVE. Nobody did it better than Jesus. Love ultimately led Him to the point of laying down His very own life for the sake of others. He set aside His personal preferences. He overlooked the wrongs He suffered. He was quick to forgive and quick to to restore. He prayed for those who despitefully used Him. And what a difference He made because of that. Multiplied millions of lives have been changed because this one Man dared to obey God and walk the Love Walk.
