The responsibility of the church is not to be an attractional body, but to be an infiltrating group. Church is not something we do, but who we are. Church is the community of God's redeemed people, who care enough about the environments in which we find ourselves in, that we seep into every crack and crevice, in the name of Jesus.

We model Good News! Because God has walked among us things will be better! Not because if you do certain things you will get to heaven, but because God has redeemed our world and wants us to participate in his redemptive work. It might mean people will hate you. It might mean friends will disown you. But you are to be salt and light bringing out the God flavors in this world.
