Quote★★★★
“We are not confronted with the task of convincing skeptical minds that
the religion of Jesus is reasonable; we
are up against the more stupendous enterprise of convincing pagan hearts that
it is desirable.”
scents that die in the dark, are all
gathered, sooner or later, into the solitary fragrance that is God. Faintly,
elusively, that fragrance lingers over all
of us.”
The point
Wallace Petty notes that the real challenge in evangelism is not proving Christianity reasonable to skeptics, but making it desirable to those with pagan hearts.
