The Demand of Christianity

Anything that doesn’t put a demand on us to grow as human beings, isn’t worth giving ourselves to. Christianity puts a demand on those who live according to its view of life and faith. The demand isn’t meant to enslave, but to liberate and set us free. The below quote by Kathleen Norris sums up the demand well:

The Christian religion asks us to put our trust not in ideas, and certainly not in ideologies,
but in a God Who was vulnerable enough to become human and die,
and Who desires to be present to us in our ordinary circumstances.

Will you live up to this?
