After twenty years of preaching faith, a painful reality settled in
I had a lot of academic faith but precious little practical faith.
I decided one of two things was true: either God was making a fool
of me, or there were some simple things about faith I had
overlooked. A burning desire to "re-learn" faith resulted in this
book. I took a new approach to Scripture study. Instead of
customarily reading the Bible to confirm what I already believed, I
began to read the Bible just to see what it said. As I re-read the
Bible "for the first time," the simplicity of the message
overwhelmed me.When we focus on Christ, faith flourishes like
flowers after a spring rain. When we focus on ourselves, trusting
God becomes an unnecessary struggle. The "What about me?" culture
we live in makes man the center of the universe. Man-centered
thinking and the cross of Christ are at eternal odds with each
other. Self doesn't need improvement-it needs the cross. We don't
need more faith-we need a new focal point. When we make Christ the
beginning, the center and the end of everything in our lives, self
will take its rightful place on the cross and faith will become
instinctive.
