None of that works -- except MAYBE the physical voice, printing, and publishing. And that only works on a small level. Those things reach people, one at a time and most often few and far between - unless one is already saying what is appeasing to people already.

Christianity is not for people who think religion is a pleasant distraction, a nice alternative, or a positive influence. Messy spirituality is a good term for the place where desperation meets Jesus.

Sadly, not much has changed over the years. - Mike Yaconelli
