Allow me to share one of my favorite jokes: “A helicopter pilot was flying outside of Seattle on a very foggy day. As he approached an office building, the co-pilot held up a sign to the window for the people in the office building. ‘Where are we?’ The people in the office building grabbed a piece of paper and wrote, ‘You are here’. When the pilot saw the note, he immediately navigated over to a landing pad. The co-pilot asked him, ‘How did you know where you were with that message?’ The pilot said, “When I saw that the message was accurate but useless, I knew we were at Microsoft.’"
Accurate but useless. A great description of many computer errors (both Mac and PC). Sadly, it is also a great description of many Christians. They may have a lot of truth, but they are not doing anything good with it. They may try to share their truth with others, but the message comes across as the kind of jibberish you find on the "Blue Screen of Death".
Is your Christian life making an impact on the world around you? Have you let the truth of God transform your life? Is the love of God spilling out in every encounter you have? Are you able to communicate the gospel in a way that people can understand?
