RE: My Video Blog/Vlog- "Has Christianity Been Abandoned?" Let's talk about it....
Excellent video. Personally, I believe at the very root of the problem is that we, as Christians, or to accept responsibility, I, as a Christian, have turned the focus from others to self. Many of our churches are inwardly focused instead of outwardly focused. Living in the wealthiest 3% of the world just by being born in the US, the goal has become meeting our own needs instead of the needs of others. David Platt wrote a great book titled "Radical", which really challenges a lot of the actions and heart of the Christian Church in America. It is causing me to re-evaluate many things.

Thank you for being open and honest about your feelings on this topic. I agree with you about accepting "responsibility". I believe many of us as Christians have failed to reach out to non-Christians in the appropriate way. I am convinced that the church needs to show the love of Christ in a greater capacity and to preach the gospel in a way that is pure and true. Man-made Christianity needs to step to the side so an authentic form of Christ's teachings can be properly portrayed.
Amen! We have perverted something that is perfect.
