Too Radical

Once again I am confronted by reality, this time as in many previous times, that I am too radical for the Church in America. It's not that I want to be a voice in the wilderness; it just works out that way. This time it was a modest proposal that a discipleship weekend that I have been involved in for the past decade, extend It's time frame to begin Friday mid morning rather than Friday evening. My original thought was to begin Thursday evening so I had already compromised. My modified proposal was rejected. Other examples include my appeal for the value of memorizing Scripture, prayer times before church services and the importance of personal, intentional accountable discipleship. Perhaps this is why over 90% of my page views are read in Singapore and Hong Kong where I know no one in contrast to a handful of page views in the US where I know many people.
