Someone said I’ve changed because I’m all “into God.” I told them I was always into God. It just took me a while to understand I was not Him.

And here’s the thing, if Christianity doesn’t change you, you’re probably not doing it right. If God agrees with you 100 percent of the time you might just be worshipping yourself.

If your faith is not calling you to change, to grow, what good is grace? What exactly is it doing?

If there’s no sin, why did Jesus die on the cross?

I don’t understand a Christianity that leaves you alone, that doesn’t bother you. But it’s a weird thing, the more I go towards Christ the more I become the real me that I was intended to be.

Years ago, someone was pretty horrified by the number of children my wife and I were having. He warned me that my wife and I were “never going to have a normal life.” And I couldn’t help but wonder what is a normal life. He meant that a normal life was one about me. He meant a me-centric life was normal.

I don’t want a normal life. I live for an audience of One. So has Christianity changed me? I sure hope so.
