Twenty five years ago the Berlin Wall came down. With pickaxes and hammers, feet and fists, the concrete slabs that encircled West Berlin were torn down. And as the day of demolition faded into night, some called out; “if not now, then when? If not us, then who?”

That same message needs to be heard today. This is our time. Not because we’re anything special, but because change is always possible, and God’s in the transformation business.

But we have a choice. We can choose to live for comfort or live for impact. We can choose to take risks or avoid them. We can choose to spend the best we have for the benefit of God’s Kingdom, or we can choose to retreat and hide and hope that somehow we’ll get through life OK.

We have a choice. We always do.
