QUESTION:
What are some typical Christian reactions to the darkness of our world?
When you look out over the darkness of our world, what does it stir in you: hopelessness and anger or eagerness to share Jesus?
When did God open your eyes to the filth of sin and the necessity of Jesus? How did He do it? Was it gradual or spontaneous?
What does crisis in the world typically do for you? Does it turn you inward or outward?
