Open up that great book of imaginary beings and leaf through the listings. Somewhere after Centaur, Goblin, E.T., and Mermaid -- but before the Unicorn and the Whatsit -- there's a page devoted to an unlikely creature called the Standstill Christian. It's unlikely because it doesn't exist. There ain't no such thing.
Christians are either growing in the Lord, or going backward. That doesn’t leave much room in between. It’s like true love: it either grows or it begins to die. Love simply can't stand still, and neither can our walk with Christ.
-- Joni Eareckson Tada in Glorious Intruder
