I Have Found the Book

There is something about a 'stay of execution' that lulls us to an unholy lethargy, and a stupor of passive indifference. We live in an age of immediate gratification, where anything that does not command split-second results is deemed little worth consideration. We have been set up, if you will; duped by our own progressive frills. We are ever looking for a faster microwave, a computer that boots up at record speed, plants that grow overnight, babies that grow in bottles, and, in the church, immediate ministry and results that defy God's laws of cultivation.
