No one could say in these days we Christians are spiritually starved. Through the care and faithfulness of God's servants, we are generously fed, taught, encouraged, pampered, stimulated, supported and nursed along. Yet we know very well, if we are honest, that this has had all too little effect on our lives. Can this contradiction be ended, this double-living cured? Can Christ really revolutionize our lives so that they are consistent and productive? The answer is yes! The result for each of us is not a life of perfection, but it is a life of reality. It does not mean a life of ease, but it is a life of joy. Our lives can be transformed.
