"A lot of people think the church is three songs and a sermon. But if you want to have an impact on people, you've got to do it differently."
Craig Gross (AKA The Porn Pastor)
This quote from the Craig Gross, a pastor with an evangelical outreach ministry among the porn industry, really got my attention.
They started a ministry in Las Vegas without opening a church!!!
"A lot of people are bothered by the fact that we call ourselves a church when we don't have a storefront. But long gone are the days when we could expect people to come to our church just because we had a building and a cool band."
This made me wonder - do we perhaps put too much emphasis on the building and the happenings inside the building? Or, should it be more about what the people that meet at that building do in and around their community that should have the emphasis?
Check out this "Evangelism Message". It is another way of sharing the Gospel with someone. See where the emphasis is.
YES! Repentance and Trust in Jesus is the only way - but what is the result of your salvation? An outward manifestation of an inward experience. You want to DO stuff... Are YOU doing enough? Or ANYTHING at ALL?
Eish!
