The Anvil of God: A Spiritual Reformation

Tired of a repetitious church life that doesn't seem to be going anywhere? Perhaps you are simply craving for something other than regurgitated religious clich s. I've heard all too many stories of the guitar-playing youth who becomes another worship leader in some hip college Christian fellowship. After college he gets himself a wife, a good job, 2.5 kids ... and Christianity to him becomes 15-minutes-a-day devotions, Friday night studies, and Sunday worships. Like many, he finds himself lost in a tradition of rambling clich s and liturgical rituals. The only way out of this apathy is seeking a new high at each church retreat. Where's the Spiritual freedom? This is Christianity?Nobody builds a house from the roof down, but instead from the ground up with a solid foundation. If we build ourselves on a Spiritual foundation that is made of flimsy clich s, how much security can we really have? Many of us have allowed ourselves to be programmed rather than be taught, giving up the freedom in the Spirit for slavery of religiosity just to fit the confine of the cultural norm. Is it any wonder why many of us only experience religion, but not the transforming power of the Spirit in our walk with God? Dare to re-examine what you think you know, with an open mind and critical thinking? Dare to be challenged? It's time for a Spiritual Reformation.
