I believe the number one reason we battle with sin, why we have no vision for the world, why we are so miserable in our marriages, why the church's moral lifestyle is pretty much the same as the world's, and why we are so self-absorbed with a narcissistic world view, is that we have no proper understanding of the holiness of God. If we truly thought God was holy we would not act like we do. We could not.

If the church is to get off life support and get out of intensive care, as a church our lifestyle needs to change. Peter's epistle was written to the suffering Christians - likely driven out of Jerusalem by persecution and scattered throughout Asia Minor. This group had internal issues - the pressure of the world's hatred. He instructs the church on how to win the tribe, their world, in which their life has intersected.

Josh McDowell reports that 69% of evangelical teens leave the church after high school. LifeWay Research found that 70% of Christian church attendees from the millenial generation quit attending church by age twenty-three. The LifeWay findings were so radical that Thom Rainer told USA Today, "The Millennial generation will see churches closing as quickly as GM dealerships." (This was before the government bailout.) What are the solutions the modern church needs to return to health for the next generation?

Somewhere in the last 20 years the church has lost its input. Its influence. The winds of culture is jeopardizing its existence. I present to you that long before we became endangered by culture and popular opinion, we were compromised first with internal diseases. The world was not our problem, we were our own worst enemy.
