Recent news reports have made us all painfully aware of our country’s national debt crisis- in the red by several trillion dollars. Journalist Jill Schlesinger has tried to help us wrap our heads around a trillion. She did the math and has figured that if you were to spend one dollar a second, you would spend a million dollars in just twelve days (time flies when you’re having fun). At the same one dollar per second rate, it would take you 32 years to spend a billion dollars. But here’s the punch line- it would take you more than 31,000 years to spend a trillion dollars. That’s a lot of money. That’s really a lot of money to pay back. It is a debt crisis indeed.

Yet, as bad as this debt crisis is, there is something much worse, something much more serious: humanity’s debt crisis with God.
