Here is how I might answer it.
The Christian life is the life of the saved; those who where once captive to this dying and fallen world of sin. It is ultimately the life of Christ, not merely of our own, but of Christ Jesus who lives, and who lives through the saved.
This is an exercise to generate thought. Answer this question, but follow the rules with your answer.
The question: "What is the Christian life?"
The rules:
1. Make your answer as short as possible.
2. No debates with others on their answer. :nono If you like it fine, but no questioning...
Right, so if you trust Jesus to the end, & not in yourself. Why would you fear loosing your salvation?

10 By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as a wise builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one should build with care. 11 For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 If anyone builds on this foundation using gold...
Hey Mike! I've been thinking about you, and wondering where you've been. good to see you back. Figured you took a break. Sounds like you're doing well.
Only man in the house uh? Welcome to my world.
On the subject of churches, I know you had that struggle there for a while with your pastor...
