Who is Affecting Who

There are several reasons why we are not fully completing God's mission a we are supposed to. First of all being the minority in the world, it is often difficult not to be affected by the world's trends seeing as they are all around our surroundings. Second we do a lot of talking about spreading His love and showing people the truth, but how often does it actually happen, not enough in my opinion. Thirdly a lot of Christians have a desire to spread the Word, but do not thoroughly study it. Most of us think we know how God works because of what we learn in Sunday school, but really we have to read the Word for ourselves and study it.
