Just Shut Up And Listen

0

Just shut up and listen. Just a for a moment.

If you want to see this dark world change, then light it up. Go to it. Don’t sit around in a church building and wait for the masses to come to you for answers. If you’re spending all your time with Christians, you probably don’t have the answers the rest of the world needs.

There was a school shooting today. There are a bunch or wars going on as well.

When the evil of humanity’s self destruction and violence is on full display, people line up their soapboxes and find a way to push their agenda.

Protests, sermons, laws, and debate won’t stop school shootings. They also don’t stop wars.

Go outside church walls and do something that matters.

Stop talking, start serving, and be who you were created to be.

We need Jesus.

Churches and leaders do not change the world simply by tweaking their church services or wearing hip clothes.

To change the world around us, we need to venture out into it and be present.

Living a life mirrored to that of Jesus is powerful when we do it around regular people. Living a life mirrored to that of Jesus inside church is what it is: inside church.

If you want to see this dark world change, then light it up. Go to it. Don’t sit around in a church building and wait for the masses to come to you for answers. If you’re spending all your time with Christians, you probably don’t have the answers the rest of the world needs.
