I have a vision that someday there will a church truly known as a community center for its city. A church with open doors as a symbol of open hearts to the city it serves.
This church will have conference and study rooms, a cafe with wi-fi connection, a place that the public can utilize as part of their everyday lives. A basketball court and skating ramps for teenage hangout after school and summers. To take it one step further, an hourly drop off day care service staffed with godly, children-loving care-takers. A place you know you can count on in an event of an emergency, that these people would do everything in their power to save your child just as you would.
As Christians, we are called to connect, called to plant a seed, called to be the city on a hill, called to be salt in this flavorless world. I truly believe that if money was unlimited, that someday a church with open doors would sit in a city such as Frisco Texas. A place where the public can use as their community center.
Let's face it. We - the Christians are not perfect and perhaps rubbed many people the wrong way. Even saying the right thing at the wrong time can sound offensive. By having a community center such as this to shower the community with a sincere desire to plant a seed.
Until then (when you and I have the financial resources to build this community center), be the community center to everyone you come in contact with through your heart and your deeds. Your conservations need not be difficult. Just ask questions to get to know them better and watch as their stories unfold. Be generous with your life through the people you serve everyday.
Scripture for the Day:
Matthew 5:14-16"Here's another way to put it: You're here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We're going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. If I make you light-bearers, you don't think I'm going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I'm putting you on a light stand. Now that I've put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand—shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives. By opening up to others, you'll prompt people to open up with God, this generous Father in heaven."
