Douglas Wilson Quotes
For Some Reason Foreign To Our Modern Ears, God Tells Us That Celebration Is Central To Pleasing Him; It Is Central To Leading A Good Life. Modern American Life Has No Time For Serious Celebrations As Did Life In Centuries Past. We've Got Work To Do; Projects And Deadlines Press Us. And Yet For All Our Industrial-strength Pragmatism, Few If Any Truly Important Things Get Accomplished. We Have Forgotten That Celebration Isn't Just An Option; It's A Call To Full Christian Living.
Celebration Is Worshiping God With Our Bodies, With The Material Creation He Has Set Up Around Us. Celebrating-whether In Feasts, Ceremonies, Holidays, Formal Worship, Or Lovemaking-are All Part Of Obeying God's Command To "love The Lord Thy God With All Thine Heart,
with All Thy Soul, And With All Thy Strength" (Deut. 6:5; Mk. 12:30). We Are To Show Our Love For God Not Just With One Portion Of Our Being (the Spiritual Aspect); We Are To Love God With Our Whole Body, Heart And Strength And Legs And Lips.
