Topic: Churches And Sacrifice

No church was ever built without sacrifice. Generally speaking, churches because no one in the church either wants to sacrifice or is able to sacrifice because of some other hardship. The word "sacrifice" is a bad word in the new millennium. The new millennium kinds of words are… "It's easy. Easy credit. No credit. Nothing down. Easy to clean. Easy to fix. No payment till next year. Get it now. Get it free. No waiting. Instant." Those are the new millennium words used to tickle our ears. Inside or outside the church we have to expend so much energy to get people excited to do a job, when we ask for sacrifice, people can go into shock. One of the greatest challenges of our age is to live out the gospel as a member of a generation pampered, waited on, and whose every need and whim is filled in an instant.
