We have lost faith in the power of the gospel and as such, we feel that we must dress up in the latest cultural costume in order to slip through the door. We feel that we have to earn the right to be heard by being "one of the guys." See, we can wear the same clothes; I've got my soul patch too; we even have the same type of music! The result, too often is that we end up being mocked rather than accepted...." thank you! why can't we trust the gospel of Christ, what has been bringing people to redemption for 2000+ years?
