Seeker Sensitive Truth!

I am constantly amazed at how so many people say things better than I can! :-) 

I am still reading "Radical Together" by David Platt, and he NAILED DOWN the "Seeker Sensitive" issue as my mind has always thought it (maybe I DID say it this way ... but since I have yet to write a book, no one has really seen or heard it!).

Listen to this: (under the subheading of "Radically Seeker Sensitive")

As you and I think about all the people who are without Christ in our communitites, we long to see as many of them as possible come to Christ.  Without question, we want to do everything we can to see people saved.  But le me remind you of a startling reality that the Bible makes clear: 'There is ... no one who seeks God'.  (Romans 3:11)  So if the church is sensitive to seekers, and if no one is seeking God, then that means the church is sinsitive to no one.  That's radical, but probably not the kind of radical we're looking for."

WOW!  Platt goes on to explain that GOD is the seeker ... and that we need to do everything we can to put the wonders and glory of God on display in our churches. 

Then he says:

So let's be radically seeker sensitive in our churches.  But let's make sure we are being sensitive to the right Seeker."

Blessings!Why is it that my mind wants to think about ALL THE WASTED church effort in the "Seeker Sensitive" movement of the last three decades in the church!  But then I wonder HOW MANY were actually true churches, with true pastors and elders ... humbling thought!
