There was a documentary that came out a few years ago called, "Why We Ride," and it sparked a lot of conversations with different motorcyclists to explain the reasons they ride.
A sense of freedom, embracing risk, stress relief, just plain fun... The reasons were as different as the bikers themselves.
But more important than explaining why you have a passion for something, be it motorcycles or something else, is to be able to articulate why you believe in Jesus Christ.
It seems the longer we have known him, the fuzzier that reason can become. Because we have moved past why we should believe, to simply believing. We no longer question it for ourselves, we simply do.
Yet Peter tells us,
" But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect," 1 Peter 3:15 (NIV)
Are you ready to give that answer?
