We try to live our lives in little boxes. We have the family box, work or school box, fun box and then the smallest box of all our church box. We are like schizophrenic with a different personality matching each box. Guys our Christianity should shine through in every aspect of our lives. I am so tired of the Christian box. I am going to be a Christian Counselor, Christian Musician, Christan Artist, Christian Teacher, and the list goes on! Well I have reinvented my little blog and I have news for you its not a Christian Blog! It is a blog written by a Christian! My Christianity shapes everything about me but there is more to me than being a Missionary. I have patterned my little corner of cyber-space to reflect all my passions including cooking, art, thinking, missions, Christ and my randomness. I hope that my love for Christ shines through it but not every post will be about Christ.
You see being Missional is not about taking the latest program or memorizing the latest evangelism tract. It is about you being the you that God created you to be and people seeing Christ through you. I’ll let you in on a little secret, keep this just between us, but no one is impressed by you saying your a Christian. What catches people attention is you living a a consistent life that reflects you being a Christian. That way if you talk about Christ they say, “Hmm maybe I should listen.”
Be the real deal!
There is my first post on my Re-invented blog. I hope that you will tune in from time to time and be a part of my rants. I am going to strive to be faithful in my writing. This is my first Missional Monday entry. Soon to follow is: Transparent Tuesdays, Whisking Wednesday, Theoretical Thursdays, Frantic Fridays, Aesthetic Saturdays and Sermon Note Sundays. Feel free to comment on any post.
