We can be normal people, expect when we're talking about the most important thing in the world. And then we don't want to do it and feel guilty about that. Great. I haven't really gotten the sense so much that people were selling something, a lot of times I've seen people say things, it seemed, as sort of a weird conscience-clearing exercise, like they were just saying it because if they didn't they'd feel guilty. Which alwasy comes off as SO genuine. yyyup. We can be normal people, expect when we’re talking about the most important thing in the world.

Totally understand your article here. And in evangelism has been the buzz agent and the other end of the pendulum, too.
