Just me trying to be honest with God.

Good works are links that form a chain of love. Mother Teresa

“For it is God's will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish men.” 1Pt.2.15 NIV

I have never heard anyone being justly critical of Mother Theresa. I am sure she had her critics but it is hard to speak negative about someone who did so many positive things. Doing good is what Christian love is all about and it is what Christ would have His follower be about. I think the Church in modern society has largely drawn criticism because rhetoric has replaced good works. What is sobering is not the criticism the church is receiving but that we are now moving into an era where the Church is simply being ignored. Nobody cares what the evangelical church is saying. The salt has lost its savor and largely because we talk too much and do so little. 9/13/2009 Conversations Within ts
