Continuing our study of the Holy Spirit, it is my intention to address the following topic this Sunday morning: "The Normal Christian Life." To be sure, I have no idea what "normal" anything is, but I do know that what the church has presented as the normal Christian life is as far from the truth as I am from one of the black holes in outer space.
I also know this: without the Holy Spirit, there is no Christian life--normal or otherwise.
I also know this: if the church started presenting the normal Christian life in a manner that portrays truth, rather than in a manner that attract crowds, most would think twice before "signing on" as a Christian.
It is, to say the least, strange to see how the "normal" is being portrayed as the "abnormal" and the "abnormal" is being portrayed as the "normal."
I am looking forward to seeing you on Sunday!
Your Pastor
PS: I enclosed the picture to give you an idea of what a "normal" garage looks like!
