IF YOU WANT TO WIN THIS WORLD TO CHRIST, YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO SIT IN THE SMOKING SECTION

Okay, hands down, my favorite quote of the year! I wish it we’re an original but it’s not. Neil Cole said it in his sensational book – Organic Church. So why are we going to have to sit in the smoking section you may be asking? Cause that’s where the lost people are found dummy! And you need to know this too – if you make them put their cigarette out to hear the message they will be thinking about only one thing: “When can I get another cigarette?” Incarnation -  this is a word that always makes me hungry for some strange reason. It also reminds me that God didn’t expect us to come to Him in heaven. He did a really crazy, risky thing - God came to us. He lived life on our terms and on our turf. Jesus sat in the smoking section.  So, as much as I hate smoking and smoking sections I am still the hands, feet, eyes and ears of Jesus on this planet and I need to bring him to the lost children of planet earth
