Radical....are we really?

I've been really challenged and inspired these last few weeks by listening to some teachings, taught by a pastor from Alabama.
A friend emailed me the link and i feel like it came right in time.... on a regular basis we need those times in our lives where God turns our thinking upside down, bring us back to the basics and lets us gaining the right perspective on life again.

BEING RADICAL. LIVING A RADICAL LIFE.
I feel like that's someting that we as Christians want, that i want - but on my own terms.
But have i ever come to Jesus on the basis of His terms?
Often we try to soften the words of Jesus to justify the way we live. We do enough to be respectable as Christians but not enough to become uncomfortable. We have created this easy, comfortable sub-culture called Christianity.

But if we really desire to be like Christ it will cost us everything. My life is His. Completely. Think about what it really really means and it's almost shocking...

I've been praying a lot that God would change my nice, comfortable way of living...however that might look like. It's not easy. It's about picking up our cross and being concerned about the things that He is concerned about and not the things that i am concerned about in my little self-centered world.

I highly encourage you to listen to those teachings....here is the link: http://www.brookhills.org/media/series/radical
I've been really blessed and i am sure God will speak to you.

Be encouraged. Let's run the race and fight the good fight. It's worth it.

Love, Katha
