Lloyd Ogilvie wrote a book over a quarter of a century ago with the title, Life Without Limits. His preparation work took him to the University of Edinburgh where he pored over the books to bring back messages to his congregation at Hollywood Presbyterian Church. Back home in the United States the nation was passing through the final stages of the Watergate crisis. As he wrote his preface, he was unaware that in a few short weeks the President of the United States would resign in disgrace.
Crisis after crisis has hit, not only the United States, but the world. Impending danger lurks in front of us even now almost three decades later. What Ogilvie penned in that preface still is relevant today.

“My study of history had convinced me that any period of revival had been preceded by a rediscovery of Jesus Christ. He alone had been able to revitalize the sagging spirit of depleted Christians; he alone had been able to invigorate a passion for the needs of people; and he alone had energized the Church with new fire and contagion. I knew that I was living in one of those times that needed Christ more than anything else.”

Today, more than ever, we are in need of Christ in order to have life without limits!
