Uh Oh, Simon didn't say. You're out.
I saw this and it hit me....it goes along with a funny (well, funny...but with a HUGE POINT) story I heard when our small group was going through the Not A Fan Bible Study. They said what if you invited a couple over to watch your house because you were going to be gone for a month or so and you gave them a print out of instructions about garbage pick-up, taking care of your pets, watering your plants....etc....stuff to keep your house in order for a month. They were so excited about the information and they thanked you for it and they even started inviting their friends over to read through the information with them because they thought it was so great. They raved about how organized you were and how much great insight you had for keeping a house in order...but, they never did anything on your list.
That sounds crazy, right? (I think that would actually be a great skit.) So, here's what I saw...again Francis Chan.
Here's a little statement one of our teens shared tonight with our youth group and I love it....
Real faith works :)
And, it doesn't just work to bring about social change...it works to make Christ known.
That's the ultimate goal.
