* It's good to suffer loss, for it draws me to the Cross where God's loss is more than what anyone ever lost. * We cannot hear what the stories of the Bible are saying until we hear them as stories about ourselves. * Let go of control. * Trust God. Thank God. Think about God. Talk to God. Talk about God.

What People Resent About Christians

Friedrich Nietzsche, the German philosopher, said that what he resented in most Christians was what he perceived as a constant underlying undertow of resentment:
  1. Resenting God for demanding a sacrifice from them...or so they thought or felt.
  2. Resenting others for not appreciating their sacrifice.
  3. Resenting the fact that they sacrificed as much as they have.
  4. Resenting others for not having to sacrifice like them.

WOW! Can anyone express and articulate this any better?
