Not surprisingly, C.S. Lewis has an excellent quote on the Christian life. While stated in the context of living in in Atomic Age, the principles set forth address what is always to be true of the lives of believers in this world.

“If we are all going to be destroyed by an atomic bomb, let that bomb when it comes find us doing sensible and human things – praying, working, teaching, reading, listening to music, bathing the children, playing tennis, chatting to our friends over a pint and a game of darts – not huddled together like frightened sheep and thinking about bombs. They may break our bodies (a microbe can do that) but they need not dominate our minds.”
