We forget that people are looking for an alternative way of life. The way of life that our culture presents often leaves us weary and empty. So they are looking at those who follow Jesus. You may be the only real Christ follower your neighbor has ever met. So what are they seeing? Do they see patience in the face of adversity? Do they see goodness and generosity in your actions? Are they experiencing grace? The idea is that God doesn’t want us to live our faith in isolation, but in public. In this sense we get to be missionaries right where we live, in the everyday ordinary stuff of life.
