Have you ever sat down and thought about that? Really thought about what "Christian" means. I googled it and you know what came up? Christianmingle.com, a wiki article, and something about a wrestler.
WHAT?!
People confused about Christ are probably more confused now. I'm a sister of Jesus and I'm terribly confused. People who are confused are going to think we are looking to date and we wrestle.
I don't know about you, but it hurts me and makes me laugh all at the same time.
Being a Christian means living the life Jesus lived.
Rob Bell said living the way of Jesus was the best possible way to live.
"This isn't irrational or primitive or blind faith. It's merely being honest that we all are living a 'way'.
I'm convinced being generous is a better way to live.
I'm convinced forgiving people and not carrying around bitterness is a better way to live.
I'm convinced having compassion is a better way to live.
I'm convinced pursuing peace in every situation is a better way to live.
I'm convinced listening to the wisdom of others is a better way to live.
I'm convinced being honest with people is a better way to live.
This way of thinking isn't weird or strange; it is simply acknowledging that everybody follows somebody, and I'm trying to follow Jesus.
Do you mirror these things? Who are you following?
