Anybody who thinks that Christianity is boring has not seen much of real Christianity. It is active, engaged, a laying hold of the life God offers. There can be no spectators in the kingdom. When Christ comes to us, we come alive. “Because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead” (Eph. 2:4-5).
