Boredom

"With nearly nine months to go before the first presidential primary, many voters are showing early signs of campaign fatigue," said a recent report by the Pew Research Center.

People are getting bored with the candidates, the issues, the hype, and the "slapping around" of the current administration. Maybe that is good news, but probably not. People will stop listening, grow less informed, and apathy will reign. . .as usual.

The Church of Jesus Christ has the same problem. People are bored with a God who never changes, Truth that is absolute and unyeilding, and the demands of "walking worthy" of one's calling. We always say we are not, but the apathy that permeates the life of the "body" is proof enough that we have left our first llove.
