Church

I've been reading this book called Radical by David Platt for the last few days, and I have been incredibly challenged by it. As I was thinking and praying about all that God has laid on my heart through this book, and other things I've been studying the last couple of weeks (can we say NO SCHOOL?!?!) I was struck with a thought. Now, I have very few original thoughts, and in all honesty, someone else has probably thought of this long before I did, but God really impressed this on my heart last night, and I wanted to share it with you.

The problem with the church in America today is that we think of church as a place that we go to be with other believers on Sunday, or maybe Wednesday night. But we are mistaken. We ARE the church! Every single minute of every single day, every single person who believes and has committed their life to Jesus Christ IS THE CHURCH! And somehow we have forgotten that.

What if we all started living like we ARE the church?
