Mark, of course, is the lead singer/songwriter for the band Casting Crowns.
The name of the book is "Your Own Jesus".
Bravo Mark!
You always give me something to think about.
This book is excellent!
It's about owning your own faith.
You can't coast on the faith of anyone else.
Your relationship with the Jesus of the Bible has to be based on your own experience.
One quote I love from the book: "Compromise is the assassin of fellowship with God."
On the show yesterday we were talking about how small compromises lead to big compromises.
The end result is a break in our fellowship with God.
It's just not worth it!
If you set up fences around your life because you want to avoid compromise, other Christians may call you legalistic.
And it's true... they may not need the same fences you do.
Let everyone be convinced in his own mind.
But may all of us remember daily what it means to love God enough to live a life that honors him.
