60: UNCHRISTIAN

I am in the process of reading a book called UnChristian: What a New Generation Really Thinks About Christianity...and Why It Matters by David Kinnaman and Gabe Lyons. Below are a few quotes interesting thoughts from the book:

"In studying thousands of outsiders' impressions, it is  clear that Christians are primarily perceived for what they stand against. We have become famous for what we oppose, rather than who we are for."


"As Christians, however, we need to make continual, honest evaluations of ourselves so that we can uncover the ways in which our lives do not accurately reflect what we profess."

"Jesus was concerned about the reputation of his Father in heaven. Are you? Your life shows other people what God is like."
