Has the church lost its influence in the world?

Jesus repeatedly called and inspired his friends to not just talk about love, but do it. "Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven" (Matthew 5:16)

People today are tired of talk. Tired of religion. Tired of organized church. 80% of the Delaware community chooses not to attend church.

After reading Robert Lewis's book about how a church (and individual Christians) can really succeed at demonstrating the love of Christ to others in their communities, I am inspired to want to do that myself. To quote the author, a church should be defined or described as "a community of people who are committed to being living proof of a loving God to a watching world."

Does that sound like your church?

Living proof of a loving God to a watching world?
