George Shamblin

Author, Teacher, and Pastor, George Shamblin is that rare individual whose excitement on the day of his salvation never cooled. He’s a man who lives to challenge other Christians to take God’s gift to them and pay it forward. It’s a challenge borne of equal parts enthusiasm and concern. “At any given time,” he contends, “Christianity is never more than a generation from extinction.

“I’ve seen too many Christians who think of faith as a spectator sport, and I have always chafed at the cliché that ‘faith isn’t a sprint, it’s a marathon.’ It’s neither. Those are individual events, and one happens to be longer than the other. True faith is a relay, a team sport if you will—and it’s up to all of us to pass the baton to others. Especially the runners who succeed us—the next generation.” George’s relay began with what might be called the spiritual equivalent of a false start.
