It would be a small world if we only served the church and let the world go its way. I did a lot of temp work when I graduated from college (tough economy) but I was placed in all kinds of places with people I would never meet otherwise. In strange situations you learn to pray a lot and look for God’s hand for who He means for you to influence.
We are his workers first, and fields are overflowing to harvest. Souls are the biggest prize for good or evil. These people are called and drawn by God and don’t know it or what to do about it. That’s our opening!
Well said, Anne. How do we love our neighbor (whether he or she is a literal neighbor, or more likely, a coworker, a customer or client, a supplier, etc.)? By using our spiritual gifts for their good. This is how we model the kingdom. This is how we create plausibility structures for people to explore the gospel that Jesus is Lord of all things.
