RE: "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself." #LightTheWorld day 4

I must say that this is the best thing i have heard in steemit all year. Thank you @gavvet. If you follow a lot of Christians on social media leading up to Christmas, you probably have noticed how many people lament over the culture’s disregard of Christ.

Well, you can see the obstacle. Or you can see the opportunity. I choose to see the opportunity. There are so many connection points with our culture you’ll miss if you only see the glass as half empty.

This is no time for the church to be more cynical than the world, which still remembers something is different at Christmas, even if they’re not exactly sure what it is.

Stop complaining about the world. Reach it instead.
This year, we’re attempting to give double the amount of money we normally give to our community partners like the local food bank, right before Christmas.
Love makes a pretty irresistible force when it’s unleashed on a city. And generosity makes an impression on the less privileged people. I am Team #lighttheworld.
