Right or wrong, THIS is how we, as Christians, are perceived. We've got to do something about this. Aren't we supposed to be known by our love? Right now, we're known for anything but.
Just thinking about this problem is exhausting. It's huge. Reaching out while not falling in requires such balance... Loving the lost is trickier than it seems. I don't say that to sound horrible. I DO love the lost. It's just that they live in such a dangerous place. It's hard not to get sucked in. I think that is why so many of us prefer our Christian bubble. Too bad it's so ineffective.
I'm passionately in love with Jesus. He overwhelms me. I'm outrageously in love with my husband of 11 years. He stole my heart. I'm giddily in love with my kids. They make me laugh.

I have so many unbelieving family members and I am hoping that our example has at least changed their view of a Christian...
