Living in a fast paced society has some benefits. For example, overnight shipping, on-demand movies, instant meals, and drive-thru’s are all supposed to help us save time so we can make room for more important things, but when it comes to our spiritual lives should we rely on expediency to help us grow closer to Jesus? Even though sometimes it seems easier to do things quickly, not spending quality time in prayer and study can have a detrimental effect on our spiritual senses and cause us to ignore or disregard what God is trying to tell us.
The book Christian Leadership reminds us, “The bustle of business, if continuous, will dry up spirituality and leave the soul Christless. Although they may profess the truth, yet if men pass along day by day with no living connection with God, they will be led to do strange things; decisions will be made not in accordance with the will of God” (Chapter 3)
This week Jesse, Eli, and Abraham express their mixed feelings about an outreach ministry that offers drive thru prayer. They also discuss and explore the Adventist tradition of “present truth” and encourage WAA listeners to alway maintain and inquiring mind that always seeks truth!
