We Don’t Wanna Admit This
Let’s be painfully honest: most churches and most Christians are pretty ineffectual in living our faith on a daily basis.
Quick diagnosis: we either don’t try much, or we try to do it all ourselves.
Classic prescription: comes at the end of a formal version of worship called Word and Table: Service One —
Eternal God,
Grant that we may go into the world
in the strength of your Spirit,
to give ourselves for others,
in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.
— The United Methodist Hymnal, p. 11
