We have told people for years that coming to church is more important than being the church. This has led to a version of cultural christianity that values faith far more on Sunday than Monday. The Holy Spirit that dwells within wants you to spread the fragrance of His grace at home, work and in your neighborhood. This post by Paul David Tripp drives home that truth:
“The next time you’re standing in your kitchen, bedroom, or at your desk, I want you to look at drawers. Yes, drawers. The place where you store cutlery, clothes, or staplers and pens.
Sadly, many people who call themselves Christians live functionally compartmentalized lives. Whether they realize it or not, they have divided their lives neatly into two drawers: real life and spiritual life.”
