'we don't want to live at second hand'

This message from desiringGod is timely and helpful. i listen to a lot of good teaching podcasts and read a lot of meaty books but the truth is that people will know i am a christian by my love, not by my big head. it's also easy to live off the faith of someone else rather than dig down deep in God's word for myself. oh Lord, plant Your truths deep in my heart and work them out in my life. do whatever You must to cut away the blindness and callouses on my eyes, that i may SEE.
