Make Some Noise

And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, What meaneth the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the LORD was come into the camp. 1 Samuel 4:6

Christians these days are a pretty quiet lot. We try to fly under the radar alot. Too much. It seems like the only time you hear about a "Christian" is when a high-profile celebri-pastor (yeah, I just made that up, what do you think?) gets caught in a scandal or when some nutcase does something insane--like threatening to have a Quran burning--in the name of Christianity. It's time for us to raise our voices a little. We have the biggest, best news in history. We have a "product" that every single person on the planet truly needs. We have the solution--or at the very least, the source thereof--for every problem people are facing, both individually and corporately. And we're trying to AVOID attention?! How irresponsible of us! Christians, stop being ashamed. Stop being shy. Stop being intimidated. Draw some attention. Dust off your shout of triumph. Make some noise!
