Several of you sent me the CNN story about the book, “Almost Christian.” Thanks for the head’s up. It’s about a study of teens and young adults who believe in “moralistic therapeutic deism” instead of the God of Scripture. MTD is, in short, a belief that God simply wants you to be good and feel good. Here’s the story.
Food for thought: To think as missionaries to your area, you have to not only identify errors in the culture’s belief system but find ways of addressing those errors. If our church is doing its job, we’ll have people in attendance (and not just youth and young adults) who operate inside the MTD assumptions. What will you do to gently challenge those assumptions?
