Why it Matters
Life moves fast and leaves us spiritually fragmented. Even when we love God, the noise and pace of modern life distract us away from his presence. It shouldn’t be normal for Christians to be shaped more by culture than by Christ. You were made to be deeply formed by God’s love — to live from it, and to reflect it in the everyday.
