"We live in a microwave meals, listen-to-podcasts-in-double-time world. We want more with less; work smarter not harder.

The other danger is a kind of stoicism, where faith is rooted in theology but void of affection. This tendency removes feelings from faith altogether. While it is true that our emotions should not lead our theology, it is vital to our faith that theology lead to a deep experience of our triune God.
