We have turned to a God that we can use rather than a God we must obey; we have turned to a God who will fulfill our needs rather than to a God before whom we must surrender our rights to ourselves. He is a God for us and for our satisfaction, and we have come to assume that it must be so in the church as well. And so we transform the God of mercy into a God who is at our mercy. We imagine that He is benign, that He will acquiesce as we toy with His reality and co-opt Him in the promotion of our ventures and careers.

My current read (quite enjoyable, too!) is a book by Lori Hynson called "Supergal vs. God".  It is a memoir of her coming to faith in Christ and actually turning her life over to God fully.   I actually got it free at work (I work at Moody Bible Institute) from the volunteers book table during Operation Next, so free books are sometimes the best, especially when they end up being quite delightful.  

So what about everyone else here…. What are you reading right now?

In Him,

Ruth Anne
