O2 by Richard Dahlstrom

O2: breathing new life into faith could almost be Richard Dahlstrom jumping on the Donald Miller band wagon.

The tag line is, "I see more passion for trees in the Sierra Club than I do for Jesus in the church."

Is that true? Have so many church-goers/Christians lost their passion for Jesus?

Dahlstrom compares our faith to breathing (O2) oxygen - we need to breathe in the teachings of Jesus and all the knowledgeable things from the Bible (and many of us do) but we also need to breathe out. We need to then participate in the work of Jesus.

You know, Jesus did give instructions about how to be a follower of Him. And Dahlstrom uses fresh ways to challenge people who are fed up with carbon copied Christianity.
