What Are We Still Doing Here?

We all know of the "Great Commission" but I fear we have far to many people believing that it is for everyone else to do, we think, "Well that's not my calling." NO. It's everyone's calling, you just have to read the Bible. http://www.openbible.info/topics/making_disciples. I understand that not everyone is supposed to go overseas as missionaries, but we can't deny the fact that you are called to make disciples no matter where you are.

We can't be spectator Christians in this country anymore. But it's not about napkin evangelism either. making disciples is more than just having others pray a prayer, it is about teaching, growing, and instructing them in faith with Christ. There's too much at stake to be more proud about our reputation over Christ's.

When we are humble enough to place Christ where he should be in our lives then what we previously thought was important seems to fade away.

‎”But whatever you do, find the God-centered, Christ-exalting, Bible-saturated passion of your life, and find a way to say it and live for it and die for it. And…. you will not waste your life.” – John Piper
