Sunday

"It would seem that our Lord finds our desires not too strong but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered to us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he can't imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased."

----C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory

Lon Solomon tells the amazing story of his conversion to Christ from Judiasm. Lon is senior pastor at McLean Bible Church outside Washington, D.C. This is the church of my own conversion several years ago for which I am eternally grateful.
