When will we realize that if we cared half as much for our neighbors as we cared for ourselves that this world would be a much better place?
How can we, as the church, begin to embrace our neighbors in such a way that the are drawn to Jesus because of our willingness to embrace the communities in which they live?
Do I even really know my neighbors? Do I even know there names? Who really is our neighbor? Where is our neighborhood? Is it simply just those who live next door to us? Or is it, in reality, all of those who the Lord allows us to cross paths with?
When was the last time you really felt like you met a need in some one's life?
If our church really is "regional" does it make the answer to the question, "who is my neighbor and where is my neighborhood" different?
What does it really look like when the church truly becomes "missional in their thinking" and "communal in their living"?
If we do the two things above are we "worshiping authentically"?
While doing the things stated above, are we doing them for the "name and reputation of Jesus Christ"?
