being salt & light

Today's "Daily Bread" is spot on for entertaining and using your home.
When E. Stanley Jones well known missionary to India, had a chance to meet Gandhi, he asked, "How can Christianity make a stronger impact on your country?" Gandhi replied that 3 things would be required:
1. Christians must begin to live more like Jesus.
2. The Christian faith should be presented without any adulteration.
3. Christians should emphasize LOVE, which is at the heart of the Gospel.
If we would use our homes to do these with those we know who are outside the faith, we would have a mighty impact on our communities and in turn our nation that would be more powerful than any book or sermon. This is how we too coudl make a stronger impact on our county!
Prop open your front door and invite someone in for a cup of something and lend a listening ear and serve up some love and understanding and let us know what happens.
