We have a job to do- we are to do as Paul did and articulate this message in every way possible so that ALL might come to know Christ. We are to be all things to all people. The ultimate message of Jesus actually stands alone- it's not sunject to culture. But for our many areas of life, we present this message in so many different ways. We break things down in a way that children can receive and understand, we make this message relevant and show it's true power for young people to walk it out effectively, we take it to people groups everywhere. We sometimes use words, sometimes we don't. Regardless fo the method, the message is the same- Jesus Christ and Him crucified! God, I want to effectively articulate the Message in its purist form without bowing to the gods of this age. I don't want to ever water down the truth but to speak it in love. I want our young people to grasp what it is to serve Jesus, to follow Christ. And I want my reward to be Paul's - I GET to do this! Yeah!
