"Exciting" and "Everything"
I think your first instinctive answer was perfect, Geoff. What could be better?
I was reading on a site this evening which showed "The Year's Most Intriguing Findings - From Barna Research Studies". It showed a chart with "Good News", "Bad News" and "Very Bad News" about born-again Christians.
One fact from the research in the "Good News" section said this:
"Half of all unchurched and non-Christian adults admit that they are seeking meaning and purpose in their life - providing a meaningful entry point for evangelizers."
From the "Bad News" section, we read:
"In a representative nationwide survey among born again adults, none of the individuals interviewed said that the single, most important goal in their life is to be a committed follower of Jesus Christ."
Soooooo, having said God means "everything" to you, Geoff, that must mean if you had been asked in this research survey, you would have made the statistic ONE, instead of NONE!!
(You know what? In all the millions and millions of surveys taken in the world ... I don't have a clue where all the people are who are being asked! Noone has ever asked ME .... or anyone I know! You don't think they make them up, do you?? I mean to say ... simply everyone believes surveys! If someone quotes survey figures, people are always impressed, and never argue, 'cos thems the facts, and thats that!!)
Well, for those who like checking sites out, try this for a few church facts!
