Does someone around you need to hear about Christ today? The Biblical record indicates that God wants to use us constantly to lead people to Himself. But our usefulness depends upon our willingness to be led by the Holy Spirit. He alone knows where we should be, who we should speak to, and what the results will be.

Everything in God’s created order moves by some type of power. We see by the power of the sun and the power of electricity. We breathe by the power of our lungs and the powerful outside pressure of the air. We move by the power of muscles and nerves placed by God in the human body. We think through the power of the mind.

My son, who is planting a church in a Northern Colorado city, intentionally took me for a walk through a sculpture garden recently that is located in a prominent spot in his large city. It was beautiful, convenient, and filled with people.

The farther we walked, the more I realized it was a garden designed to help you pray to ancestral spirits. This religion is called animism and is no different from the false religions we read of in the Scripture. Paul encountered this in Athens.

What is the truly Christian life? What is the experience of the Christ follower? And what is their purpose?
