Doers of the Word

Christianity is not a religion or a philosophy, but a relationship and a lifestyle. The core of that lifestyle is thinking of others instead of ourselves. Thinking of others is the heart of Christianity and the best evidence of spiritual growth. This kind of thinking is unnatural, counter-cultural, rare and difficult. Fortunately we have help in the Bible:

“God has given us his Spirit. That’s why we don’t think the same way that the people of this world think.” (1 Cor.2:12a)
