a quote that defines my life (of course from church history)

"Better to provoke a scandal,
Than abandon the truth." -Bernard of Clairvaux


this is a really hard concept to understand with our present pluralistic culture. but in light of this massive behemoth like truth, let us like sailors amidst a storm let us hold fast to our joyful duty of proclaiming the singularity of the cross and the Lordship of Jesus Christ. can we do this? by grace through faith knowing that it is not of ourselves that we do it. let us cast our schedules aside and not worry so much about what people think, but about how to please the Lord.
