The call to “lay it on the line” is usually reserved for the hardest places in the world. Places hostile to the gospel, or at least “hard” to the gospel. We support many missionaries in areas like this who are answering the call to “live dead.”

But… that doesn’t apply to us, does it? In the United States? In the land of plenty? “Live dead?”

Really?

First of all, how do we hear a call like that in the United States?

Second, how is that lived out in our lives? What does that look like?

These are urgent questions I am sensing in my own prayer life.
