As I am reading deeper into this book, it makes me wonder about how I am as a follower of faith, or lack of following. For a while, I have been doubting the existence of a God and somewhat of Jesus. yes, he lived, but did all of those things happen? Then I see all these so called "Christians" roaming around, announcing their faith and then acting like hypocrites- drinking, swearing, doing ungodly acts at ungodly hours. How is this faith?
However, I then got into the section where Miller and his few friends built a Confession Booth at Reed, and apologized. I loved it. It was something unheard of, and it was something that porclaimed who they are. And the main fact was, they came out with their faith in a sea of Christain haters (kind of). Then the book went into Andrew's story. He said that, "dying for something is easy because it is associated with glory. Living for something is the hard thing." And it is so very true. Living for something cause much more pain. So, who is ready to live out their faith? I hope to one day.

I completely see where you are coming from when it comes to believing if Jesus really did do all those miraculous things. Christians today really are hypocrites. They say they live for Christ, and make it sound like it is an easy path. When in reality, it is a hard path, it is not an easy task to lead a faithful life. It's a hard decision to make.
