I wonder if churches do to people what zoos do to animals?

Are we producing producing Christians that are tame, were we put them in a cage behind a plexiglas, and makes them looking out of the window to the real world?
It is too safe. It is too tame. It is too predictable. I have to say "Christians in cage??" No thanks, and then why am I then acting like that? When I look back of the 18 years of my life in my church, with up's and down's, why don't there happens more in my life. Why doesn't people get saved and being followers of Christ? Why am I not willing to take risks?

I just wonder if churches do to people what zoos do to animals?

I love my church, and I love doing ministry in the church too. Often we take people out of their world, were they life and act, and we try to tame them in the name of Christ. We try to remove the danger. We try to remove the struggle. And we end up with a tame Christian.

I have made a decision not to be a boring follower of Christ. I want to live a life where risks are normal for my spiritual growth with Christ.

Don't you want to be like that?

Living a life that's worth telling stories about

Lately I have been thinking of what am I living my life in a way worth telling stories about?

Are we really living our life in such away, where we are willing to take risks that changes the way we see life? Were do things that nobody dare to do, ad it's worth to look back on later in our life. Stories where we see God have done some amazing things through?

I believe everybody in some way is a leader. And as a leader we live our life with a purpose. Everyone is a leader, it just depends on how we are prepared or capable of living like one. How can we expect to inspire others to find theirs? Everyone has a purpose, our challenge is becoming aware of it.

I want to have a purpose where I dare to take risk and do crazy things and look at what God have done, instead of waiting 20 years from now, and look back and say why didn't I do it?? Why didn't I dare to jump out and try it out?

Are you living our life to the fullest? Are you living a life where you dare to jump of the cliff and just know that God is in full control of your life?
