What Are We Talking About?

I stand amazed at the Christian community ... a group of potential 'world-changers' who have themselves had a life change by the power of Christ's cleansing blood and the indwelling Holy Spirit. But 'world-changing' has taken a back seat to completely other focuses. For example, a recent Twitter post by a real sweet lady in Nashville speaks loudly: sitting in starbucks, listening to pastors "disagree" nastily about their church. so glad a room full of people get to see grace this way... ! Get my point? Christians, whether pew warmers or leaders are so out-of-focus of the mission Jesus began, that the Twitter post mentioned above is an example of what's been going on before a watching world for decades. Another example of Christ's family out-of-touch with His mission is the use of the word "ministry". I have been closely around a 'Christian' organization that proclaims itself involved with and actively performing 'ministry'
