Decaf Faith

Owen Strachan in his new book Risky Gospel makes the following observation:

Our marriages are okay. Our kids are fine. Our church - well, it is getting along. We're not setting benchmarks for Christian laborers in our jobs, but we're doing what we need to do. Occasionally we read the Bible. Once in a while we talk with someone about the Lord. But it's all very maintenance-y. Ordinary. Without zip. This is decaf faith.

Ouch! Make mine espresso after all.
