"THE PLAN"
MEN and women today feel lost and astray in this world. A glance at our modern art, poetry or novels, or five minutes' conversation with a sensitive unbeliever, will assure us of that.

It is God's judgment, which we have brought down on ourselves by trying to feel too much at home in this world.
Below is an interesting blog by Mike Breen about the synergy of discipleship. I encourage you to watch the video, also.
