Does Christianity in America seem a little odd to you? I think many Christians believe that being a good Christian is standing strong in Washington, DC. If we're active in the right political party and get all the right laws passed, then we can be a good Christian nation, right? No. Christ has called us to live for him and be like him. Is this the calling we've answered? I can say with a certainty that liv-ing for Christ and living to please him, is no longer being preached. The common message is about what God can do for us and how he can help us feel better and be more successful in what we want to do. My question is this: When did God become our slave? The truth is that our American churches have become distracted by everything around them and lost sight of the reason they exist. This worldly attitude has created a kind of plastic Christianity that possesses the label but lacks any real substance.
