Status Quo

"If we want a PURPOSE & VISION for our lives, we must be dissatisfied w/ the Status Quo." Brad Cooper, the youth pastor at Newspring said this in one of his Facebook status updates. This hit me hard. Lets break this statement down...

"If..." So its saying, "IF...we want a purpose and vision..." Some people will want it and some people will not want it. That's interesting.

"...we must be dissatisfied..." The word satisfied means content. Dissatisfied means discontent or not pleased. So its saying we MUST be discontent or not pleased with the status quo.

"...the status quo" Whats the status quo?! Status Quo means the present state or existing condition.

So what is our existing condition?

Right after I wrote that question, I saved the blog. I didnt know the answer to that question. I went about my day trying to think of the answer...still no clue. So Im just gonna let it sit there. And maybe you guys can help me out...

What is our existing condition??
