Of Telling

So, I had a thought last night. We pulled into the local grocery store chain, and saw the new Dodge sports car, and there were like ten people gathered around it, looking at it. And my family and I went over and admired it for a bit, and for the rest of the night, my dad and bro were telling people how they saw the new car. Now, where am I going with this, you may ask. I got to theinking about it, and we are all so willing to talk about the new movie, or the game last night. We are always so willing to talk about the latest polotics, and a most recent britney spears stunt.

So, I got to thinking about it, and I thought 'Why are we so unwilling to tell people of the greatest news to ever reach the Earth?' Why can we talk about the new movie, and completely leave Christ out of the conversation? Why will we talk about the newest economic stimulus package, and not mention the best bailout ever? (And it didn't even come from the government...) Why will we talk about the new Tom Clancy book, or Nora Roberts book, but not the Bible? Why can we sit up, and watch a movie until two, three in the morning, but we will miss church, which starts at ten? Why do we look at the sky, and wonder if there is other life, in stead of marveling at the awesome work of our creator?

Just something to think about. If you want to give me an answer, have at it, but I ask that you have some scripture referances.
