Wonder if HF will let me borrow his taser for this?
Lots of churches are taking on a new form of this travesty. The latest craze is to speak piously about how God called us to win souls, that we are to go into all the world rather than occupy pews. Sounds good. Will end bad because it is community service gone amuck of the Great Commission.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, many of our lives are a poor testimony of the presence of God. The ungodly are calling us out on stuff and we brush it off because we think they’re just evil. How long have they accused church leaders of fleecing the flock before we started to catch on?
Rather than focusing on drawing closer to God and letting God change us, break us and renew us, we deflect. Christianity loses its teeth at home so we export it. Nice…
“Unreached peoples” are the latest target. These poor people are in danger of becoming another casualty of our inability to deal with our own problems by focusing on those of others.
