Someone has estimated that the average member of the church has heard 6,000 sermons, 8,000 congregational songs and led zero people to Jesus Christ!
Here is the way the problem stacks up in a Church with 200 members:

but of the rest, 18 are

Has anyone in here actually seen the Titanic up close where it now lies at the bottom of the ocean?
We have all seen photos; we all have read or have even heard stories of the Titanic.
So I am sure we all agree that the Titanic is Real. In a sense, don’t we all have some sort of faith, that

The Lord Jesus Christ whom we exalt at Christmas is not just a baby in a manger. He is not a character in a children’s story. He is far more. The first time he came, he came veiled in the form of a child. The next time He comes, and we believe it will be soon, He will come unveiled, and it will be

Christ meets you outside the throne room, takes you by the hand, and walks you into the presence of God. Upon entrance we find grace, not condemnation; mercy, not punishment. Where we would never be granted an audience with the king, w are now welcomed into his presence.
