So many times I've heard Christians exclaim that God doesn't expect them to be door mat's. But then Jesus seems to paint's another picture, where being his disciple one must turn the other cheek.
Also he command's his follower's to be spitefully used, not to return curse for curse, and laying down one's life for their brothers and sisters.
It seems to me that this not the case, rather the opposite is true, and it does not make me inclined to believe what Christians say about the transformational power of Jesus.
