In small group this evening we were discussing 1 Corinthians 8, pertaining to food and idols. What I enjoy most about our discussions is that we start off with the most basic points, but the tangents of thought that follows is what makes the evening most interesting. Tonight was no exception, as I caught myself surprised that I'm not too sure what it means "to be in the world but not of it" as it pertains to evangelism.
You see, I'm not sure if I take a firm stand on my beliefs - if I ever compromise or not. Sometimes we (or maybe just I) succumb to 'fitting in' in order to gain rapport with people. What does it mean to be real? I used to know. Now I'm at a place where everything I say, do, or even think is in order to please or impress other people. Not all the time, merely sometimes. Lord help me work through this thinking process...
In other news, that was a pretty epic hockey game tonight. SO CLOSE. Looking forward to watching Canada play the U.S.
