269 – What if Jesus Came to Your Church?

The Bible Speaks to You: Think, Pray, Love like Jesus

269 – If Jesus walked into your church, would you recognize him?
Would he look the way we have imagined him with a beard and flowing hair? Would he be in a coat and tie or in blue jeans and a flannel shirt?
I know, this is a totally hypothetical situation, but it's helpful to ask these questions once in a while.
In this week's episode I talk about:

• The three main ways to recognize the presence of Christ in your church
• How to see Jesus in everyone who comes to church
• How to treat everyone at church the way you would treat Jesus
• What happens to your church when you do this
• The Parable of the Five Monks

When you look at someone else and recognize Jesus in them, you will treat them with great love, respect, care, and honor.
When you recognize Christ in yourself, you will treat yourself, your body, your mind, your soul and spirit with greater respect, honor and love.
When we do this collectively, that’s what church is all about: seeing Christ within each and every one, and treating them accordingly.
