I read a blog by Dave Ferguson this morning that talked about a dude named Jeremy who has friends that like throwin' darts at a local bar. Since they aren't willing to come to Church, he saw this as an opportunity to reach out. He goes to the bar and throws darts with them, they like him so they listen to them as he intentionally brings up the things of God. It makes me think of Matthew 9, when Jesus went to hang out with sinners! People aren't busting down the doors of the church, we must go to them! Someone pretty famous said the same thing, "Go into all the world...". I'm glad he didn't say, "Open the church doors to all the world."
Who can you reach out to and pray for today that won't darken the doors of church? Be Jesus to them, take interest in them, show them the love of Christ! It's ok if they don't come to church, you are the church, go and BE it!
