You see a doctor for 15 minutes every 3 months. This qualifies them as experts in your medical care. What would happen if we used that same metric in other areas of life?
What if you only went to church for one service every 3 months? What if you only went to one service during conference per year? What if your pastor only preached for 15 minutes every three months? Would he still be your pastor?
What if your spouse only came home once every 3 months? What if you only spent 15 minutes every 3 months with your kids? Would you still have a family?
How about going to your boss and telling them that you will only be in for work for 15 minutes every 3 months. Let your kids only go to school for 15 minutes every 3 months and see how much they learn.
Relationships take an investment of time to work. Expertise takes time to acquire. Faith only grows when we spend time in church. Ministry is not a part time job. We only have three services a week. Surely you can make it to more than one.
What if you only prayed for 15 minutes every 3 months. Do you think that Christ will know you when you enter the pearly gates?
