Home sick? Read a book...

Home sick from work today and ended up reading Francis Chan's "Crazy Love" in the course of just a few hours.  I borrowed the book from my father-in-law because I read a few reviews of it that basically claimed he was preaching "salvation by works" theology and that this was a dangerous book.  I needed to read it for myself.  The fact that I polished it off in a few hours tells you something.  He is NOT preaching about works as a means for salvation, but rather pointing out that a Christ follower who is sold-out in love with God cannot possibly go through their normal week without so-called good works.

GREAT BOOK!  But that description means nothing if I now choose to do nothing.  But see, the stuff is writes about is exactly what I have been tossing around in my own mind so I don't think the "doing something" part will be too difficult for me.  At least, the desiring to do something will be easy.  I struggle with turning desire into action.  How will this manifest in my life?  I don't know yet, but I plan to write about it as I go through this process of changing from a "lukewarm" Christian into a Christian who is defined by love.
