Are we lip Synching?

240.8 /-.2 / 24.2

Warning - this is ridiculous!



OK - I warned you! I'm not sure what is the most disturbing here... that goofy outfit, the obvious messed up lip synching? Or the fact this is a church service? But it got me thinking. How often are we guilty of lip synching?

I think it's way too easy for us in the Christian community to simply give in to "church speak" without any real substance in our lives. We say we love Jesus - but do our actions back that up? Are we really living for Him? We say we want to see people come to know God's love - but then just hang out with folks who already know it. Folks - we will never win people we don't have a relationship with!

Certainly the world knows something just "smells funny" when they see us just go through our religious movements without seeing any real change in our lives. It's our version of "lip synching".

This weekend we challenged everyone to seek God in finding at least one person outside of Christ and then allow God to use us to win them for God's glory. Let me give you (and me) a warning - lip synching will not work - EVER! It's one thing to go out and sign our names to the "big one" - it's quite another to break out of our comfort zones and really connect with someone who is lost.

Several Years ago two up and coming stars saw their careers crash and burn because they got busted lip synching. Don't let what happened to Milli Vanilli happen to you! It's not just us who will pay the price!
