How can we start working spiritually? We’re beginning to focus on things we might have pursued instead of the abundant life God has to offer, and one of those things is work.
The “rich and satisfying life” that Jesus comes to proclaim isn’t just for the future, it is also for “now.” He doesn’t tell people to just sit and wait until they die. The gospel is about life.
There are people waving and cheering like fans, but who aren’t following Jesus. Fans can make a lot of noise, and disrupt the opposing team’s plays. But Jesus calls us to be in the game.
