Peter tell us to be ready to give the reason for the hope that everyone one is asking us about -
1 Peter 3:15
When was the last time someone stopped you to ask about your hope?
Is there nothing about our lives that is worth asking about?
Our hopes are deeply tied to our real desires
Killing desire has meant a hopeless life for too many
People aren't exactly ripping the roofs of churches to get inside
The enemies ploy:
- Drain life and beauty away from the church
- Bury Christians in duty
- Nobody will want to take a closer look
Wrong conclusion: Desire gets me into trouble and I must avoid it at all costs
Danger is not desire but disowning desire
Key Phrase: When was the last time someone stopped you to ask about your hope?
