The people who get things done for God are people who take risks.  I believe He actually created the world to be this way, and our selfish nature fights against that by putting comfort first.  And when comfort gets put first, the irony is the world becomes more broken, more empty almost, and it takes more sacrifice to rebuild that once whole, then broken world.

What do you need to risk that you would rather keep?

I’m wondering what I would look like if I were to become the ultimate Christian.  Better yet, what do you think I look like when I become the ultimate Christian?

Do I pray all the time?
Do I immerse myself in the Bible and study, study, study?
Do I serve and love and give like Mother Theresa?
Does fasting become a part of my routine schedule?
Is my attendance at every church service, Bible study, and prayer meeting required?

I’ve just been thinking about this lately and wanted to know what you thought.  Is there an end goal?  Is Jesus that end goal?  Is it possible to translate all of the things He did into our culture today?  For years we’ve split into denominations and factions because we can’t agree on this answer, while Jesus prayed that we may be brought to unity for the worlds sake. So please share…

What does your Christian utopia look like?
