That said, I can't think of a single age where I wouldn't have felt the same! And to be honest, many of the faults of the age are my faults too (and perhaps not enough of its strengths). My only certainty is that the Church needs to show its variety: there is no one answer that will solve everything, but there is great life still within us which, as you say, is the living water all crave.Lazarushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09716412032074416331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5078331897510807942.post-18488225121002426932015-03-18T11:26:24.735-07:002015-03-18T11:26:24.735-07:00I think that this is a really good post, Lazarus; ...I think that this is a really good post, Lazarus; I'm not sure what I can add to it.<br /><br />In my own case, as the years have passed I've developed a greater appreciation of the genuine good of much of the contemporary age here in the West, in devolved, Unionist Scotland, in our democratic societies which are so, so easy to criticise.<br /><br />The question is vitally important: how do we constructively engage with the unchurched, post-Christian or non-Christian people of our time? These folk are all our brothers and sisters and they surely thirst for the living water that only Christ can give.Kennethhttp://www.secondspring.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
