Chesterton Perspectives

"The act of defending any of the cardinal virtues has today all the exhilaration of a vice." G.K. Chesterton

What would G.K.C. say today?

"A dead thing can go with the stream, but only a living thing can go against it."  G.K.C.

Are we living or dead? Are our churches living or dead? If we go with the flow we'll be flushed down the toilet - then we'll be stinky. 

"Fallacies do not cease to be fallacies because they become fashions." G.K.C.

Much in the professing-church is fashionable; and we keep churning the fashions out. Our attention spans are so short that we demand fashion after fashion in Christian marketing - after all, if we stopped being entertained we might actually have to come face-to-face with the Christ of the Cross and the Cross of Christ.
