Rethinking: What If...?

What would it look like if Christians got as excited about spending time and being Jesus to the kids smoking pot and doing drugs at the skate park as their favorite candidate winning a debate?

What would it look like if Christians went to their knees in prayer for the broken community around them instead of to the TV for their favorite show?

What would it look like if we gave up our evening meal at a favorite restaurant to meet with the kid dealing with a broken home, an addiction to pornography, a parent who says they will never amount to anything?

What would it look like if we took a night away from athletics, music, etc to simply sit with those who have never known the hope of Jesus?

Why do we get so passionate about us being right instead of passionate about the truth of God and the hope of Jesus breaking the chains of the hurt, the lonely, the lost, the unloved?


Oh God - the world is crying out around us - let us die to ourselves and live each and every moment for you.

And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’ (Matthew 25:40 ESV)
