I want to be filled with astonishment which is so captivating that we are considered wild and unpredictable and, well, dangerous. Yes, I want you and me to be dangerous to dull and boring religion. I want a faith that is considered dangerous by our predictable and monotonous culture. A long time ago, A.W. Tozer said, Culture is putting out the light in people's souls. He was right.
Dullness is a religious and cultural issue.
Our culture has become dull. Dullness is the absence of light in our souls. We have lost the sparkle in our eyes, the passion in our marriages and partners, the meaning in our work, the joy of our faith. Perhaps the greatest enemy of Christianity is people who say they believe in Jesus, but who are no longer astonished and amazed. He came to save us from dullness.
