1. Would a non-Christian be able to discern a difference between you and the world, and what diference would they see?
Sadly, I can't say that they'd see much of a difference,
other than the fact that I go to a Christian school and I go to church.
Outwardly, there's not much about my life that's
radically different from the standard American teen's life.
2. What is the common theme to these verses? (Mark 10:21, Luke 6:20, 24, Luke 18:25)
If you make money more important than following God,
your heart is not in the right place.
How do these texts apply to you?
I can give more of my time and money to others,
showing them that there's more to life than ourselves.
I can go on mission trips more often.
I can give of my money to those who need it more.
3. What verse means the most to you at this point, and what do you understand from it?
The verse that strikes me the most is Luke 14:33. It basically says,
we worry too much about our earthly possessions,
when in Heaven we will have much greater. To follow God is
to abandon all else we hold dear, or at least make these things second fiddle.
4. Are you more like the Queen Mary in peacetime or wartime? What luxuries do you think of as needs?
Peacetime.
Luxuries that I think of as needs:
- Christian Education
- Christian Parents (family, etc.)
- food (in abundance)
- shelter
- clothing
- music education
- Christian friends
Well, friends, I think that's it. And just because I think you guys are cool, here's a funny video to keep you guys happy:
