The next challenge for Christianity is to remind Europeans that we are called to seek the truth.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Clearly a big challenge for Christianity is how to remain in contact with the millions of people who look for God but do not come to Church.
Europe and European identity is rooted in Christianity.
Is it not worrying in itself that European Christianity is now barely able to keep Europe Christian? If we lose sight of this, the idea of Europe could become a minority interest in its own continent.
In requiring this candor and simplicity of mind in those who would investigate the truth of our religion, Christianity demands nothing more than is readily conceded to every branch of human science.
The challenge of the next millennium will be to preserve the American experiment by restoring its Christian perspective.
We seek the truth and will endure the consequences.
People are needed to take up the challenge, strong people, who proclaim the truth, throw it in people's faces, and do what they can with their own two hands.
In this world filled with challenges, we do need help from time to time. Religion, eternal truth, and our missionaries are vital parts of that help.
Perhaps Europeans are a bit more skeptic whereas Americans are more believers.
What we need in Europe is to push back against the idea that religion is so farfetched that it's not worth talking about.
