Who Do We Represent?

People come to church looking for God and you are the first person they see.

Scary thought?  Somebody told me they did not think Biff was a good representitive of Jesus.  They thought Biff didn't take the whole Messiah thing seriously enough.  What do you think?

If you were the first person a seeker encountered what would they think about God?

I went to a dinner the other night and one of the speakers kept using the phrases "our Christian values" and "our Republican values" interchangably.  If I were a person looking for God I would have decided God is a republican, God is white, and I might not be welcome if I were neither.

In church last Sunday a young mom was sitting in a reserved pew (where we asked her to sit) with her family waiting for her son's baptism.  A member of the church came up and told her she was in her pew and she needed to move.  If she had been a person looking for God she would have decided God is set in traditional routines and not very welcoming.

If a person looking for God met Biff first what might that person believe about God?

If someone looking for God reads this blog what would it say to them?
