HTH: God’s Inefficiency

Pastor Mike McGarry, a Rooted blog contributor, wrote this piece on his blog, www.crosswalking.net. He makes the intriguing point that God could have sent Jesus during a technological age and accomplished the Great Commission in a generation. But he didn’t. A great read about the core of youth ministry.
