Mission
I am convinced that my mission, and the mission of any Christian, is not effectively described in the concept of "witnessing". It is much greater than that. I believe that as a Christian I am meant to be an agent of good in the world. As a part of the body of Christ, it is the job of Christians to bring the Kingdom of God into the world now. This does not just mean recruiting people to the cause. It also means pursuing the cause. That means bringing more truth, virtue, beauty, love and grace into the world whenever I get a chance.
Maybe a lot of readers don't care about this, but it is something I think a lot of Christians need to hear, and to consider, even if they reject it. I am fed up with the idea that we should do good with the intention of converting people. Conversion is not an end, but a beginning.
