Is it great? Or is it just good enough?

I came across a quote the other day by C.S. Lewis that has haunted me ever since…it deals with excellence. Many times we settle for something that is subpar and label it as “good enough”…when in reality, it is poor. It is my opinion that Christians should be leading the way when it comes to providing excellence instead of recreating or copying popular culture and placing a Christian spin on it. The bottom line it simple…if it is worth doing, it is worth doing well! I now have this quote as my screen saver to remind me to always give God my best in everything I do. Just thought I would pass it along…”

“Let choirs sing well or not at all. Otherwise we merely confirm the majority in their conviction that the world of business, which does with such efficiency so much that never really needed doing, is the real, the adult, and the practical world; and that this culture and religion (horrid words both) are essentially marginal, amateurish, and rather effeminate activities.”  C.S. Lewis
