    Alex NcFarland
    In 1933, G.K. Chesterton observed that while it is important to win the lost to Christianity, leaders also must “convert the Christians to Christianity.” It’s a timeless reminder that the church must be dedicated in its duty to pass on biblical truth to upcoming generations.

    Patton Dodd
    We live in an instant society. We need gratification not now, but yesterday. Our desires come pre-packaged with impatience. Many people blame the proliferation of media for this, and there’s no doubt that digital everything has left us somewhat scattered. I’d wager there’s a basic human truth lurking underneath our attention span deficit. Maybe our great-great-great grandparents could sit and read several chapters of a book easier than we can, but—as Jesus knows—tarrying one hour in unpleasant tasks of quiet concentration never has been something humans do naturally.
