onal baggage.When 
I meet someone new, I get to talk to him or her 
like a regular person. We joke around, talk about our families, and 
then the inevitable happens. What do you do for a living? When 
I answer this question, I typically get one of two responses. I 
either get an onslaught of Christianese phrases -- Oh, praise the Lord! 
What a blessing, brother Craig! or I get stonewalled, and the conversation 
dies as quickly as it started.One time when this happened, the person 
I was talking with politely shared that he didnt like religious people. 
I chimed in that I didnt like religious people either. His mouth 
nearly dropped to the floor. I explained that religion is about rules, 
but being a Christian is about relationship.Now Im not saying is that 
religious organizations are useless. Obviously, Im a part of one. I am 
the pastor of a church and truly believe what Bill Hybels asserts: 
The local church is the hope of the world. But in order 
to reach the current generation and generations to come, we must change 
the way we do things. Thats why we like to say, To 
reach people no one is reaching, we have to do things no 
one is doing.As churches, we dont have the liberty to change the 
message, but we must change the way the message is presented. We

TEHRAN, Iran  A top Iranian lawmaker declared Sunday that Iran will 
never halt its nuclear development program, a day after the latest round 
of international talks failed to reach agreement on the issue.Alaeddin Boroujerdi 
said the talks were "considered effective and a step forward," but he 
added, "the Islamic Republic of Iran will never stop uranium enrichment 
activities."Boroujerdi, who heads a parliamentary committee on national 
security and foreign policy, said the talks should continue. He was quoted 
by the ISNA news agency.Western powers are concerned that Iran may move 
toward production of nuclear weapons. Iran denies that, insisting that its 
program is peaceful.World powers have repeatedly demanded that Iran close 
down its Fordo underground uranium enrichment plant that is enriching uranium 
up to 20 percent. Uranium that is enriched to 90 percent can 
be used in weapons.The U.N. has enacted four rounds of economic sanctions 
against Iran to try to force it to curtail its program, but 
Iran has remained defiant."If one day the (Iranian) administration decides 
to close down Fordo, the parliament will oppose the decision, definitely," 
Boroujerdi was quoted as saying. He said Iran will continue reinforcing 
the plant because of foreign threats. Both the U.S. and Israel have 
hinted at military action against Iran's nuclear facilities if diplomacy 
fails.Ali Akbar Velayati, an adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah 
Ali Khamenei, blame
