So I'm reading this book, The God You Can Know, by Dan DeHaan, which I don't really know anything about, except that it used to be my Grandmas. Anyways, it is all about knowing God! (Surprise surprise.) According to the book, there are 10 by-products of knowing God.
1. Character development
2. Freedom from intimidation
3. Passion for the lost
4. Energy in serving the Lord
5. Renewed thoughts of God
6. True satisfaction in God.
7. Boldness for God
8. Worship keeps us from putting Christianity into situational compartments (sacred and secular)
9. The cure for situational ethics (Which means they think that all rules have exceptions)
10. Knowing the difference between repentance and remorse
Anyways, at the end, it asks you if you can say that "these ten areas are clearly lived" in your life, and which ones are the weaker ones. Well, I can't even say that one of them is clearly lived. I don't think I have any of these. That's sort of sad eh? Plus, I really really really want to know God.
