They're asking some great questions. Here's just one.
"What is the gospel to people who don’t even want anything to do with religion?"
Stop for a minute and think about that question.
This is more of what I remember about the HarvestBoston blog. Always thoughtful with something profound to forward to its readers.
Another question posed by Holt (of HarvestBoston) in the latest Christian Chronicle, is if we (believers) sometimes mistakenly assume that missionaries can enter a community and merely “download” the good news into its people — who have little or no prior knowledge of God.
“That’s very rarely the way that it works,” Holt said. “At the most foundational level, people are not devoid of God. People are programmed with God’s DNA. They were created in his image.”
Let me interject: God is present in the lives of all his creation. It's our job to become spiritual explorers helping the people we walk with to begin connecting the dots.
