Forget the cynicism, forget the arguments about "selling people" religion, forget whether it is time for a new reformation and focus on the fact when people find God and how much he loves them it can be so powerful.

Focus on what you feel when you see somebody saying for real how much they love God and how he really can change lives and you know this is not just "saying the right thing", but something which comes from so far inside it's amazing.

Finding it hard to focus? Yeagh, it's so hard because that total focus on loving God with the whole of a heart, soul and mind and knowing the depth of love he has for us is rarely witnessed inside our churches if we're honest. Today we had a baptism at church and it was amazing, the focus was so clear it bought a tear or two to the eye of most of us, this was v.real and v.special.
