lately i have been challenged by the thoughts of peter rollins and his approach to following Jesus.
a big one being, and i'm paraphrasing, but he says that if we truly believed in God our lives will be transformed. if we truly believed in God we will be changed.
and if our lives aren't transformed, if being a Christian is just going to church, reading the bible, praying, singing songs, being nice, then maybe we really aren't following God.
chew on that.

what if going to church, being nice, singing songs, and praying are the transformation?
i would suggest that you need to be willing to let yourself be stretched by God. what he described could be a stretch...which is why most people wouldn't even fit that description.
how often do we pray?
how often do we read our Bible?
how nice are we?
yeah, there should be more if you are ready for more. so lets be willing to listen for God's leading.
