The Christian life is not turned in, it is turned out. We do not become followers of Jesus to sit in the church and learn stuff. We become followers of Jesus to go where he went and do what he did. If we are not going where he went and doing what he did, then we are not following him.
We are to get out amongst them, we are to go to the least of these. We are to live the missional life. A Christian life without a missional component is hardly Christian.
Yes, go to church, go to Sunday School. Enjoy your book club, your softball team, your bible study and small group. But remember, these are launching pads that should be sending you and me out into the world to love others.
The Christian life is lived out there. We are sent.
It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
