I heard a story of a buggy company that went broke after the automobile was invented because they thought they were in the buggy business instead of the transportation business. Sometimes churches get confused also. We are not in the church business. We are in the people business. We are not here to keep church people happy. We are here to bring people to Christ and disciple them to reach more for Christ. That comes by developing authentic relationships outside of our Christian circles. How long will we strive to keep the status quo happy at the expense of hurting people spending eternity without God? I also heard the story of a man who walked up to a church to read a note on the door that read: “Gone out of business because we forgot what our business was!” Let us be about God’s business.
What do you think?
