One of my friends wrestles with faith constantly. At this moment he would describe himself as a “non-theist” stopping short of an atheist. He shared with me the challenge facing those who assert they would die for their faith in Jesus. To a group of students he asked how many had indeed died for their faith. Of course, none of them had – they were in class!

His point lie in the fact that too many tell it but not too straight. Interestingly our denomination’s chief missiologist and researcher, Ed Stetzer, re-posted a video of Penn telling it straight. What are your thoughts?
