Revealing Jesus to the world

As we looked at Ephesians 3:8-13 on Sunday, we had a great group discussion.  So much wisdom was presented and God was really working on our lives.

We were given two questions to talk about around our tables.  "How does the church reveal Jesus? and How do I reveal Jesus?"

There was a lot said about how the church is revealing Jesus and much about how it isn't.  Agreed, there is work to be done in how the church reveals Jesus, but I believe that all hope is not lost.  We can become the church that Jesus envisioned when He created us.  There were many practical ways given that we can be the church and reveal Jesus to the world.  Giving of our time, loving people like no one else can, taking care of our neighbors and actually speaking the name of Jesus not just living the life.

But there was one answer that I really thought summed it up.  It was said that the answer of the first question is truly answered by the second.  As a whole, we will be ineffective if we are not individually revealing Jesus.  It has to start with me and you as a person before we can expect to come together as a whole and really reveal Jesus to the world.

I want to hear your thoughts.  Throw them in the comment section below.

How can the church reveal Jesus if the individual is not willing to reveal Jesus?
How can YOU reveal Jesus to the world?
How was Jesus revealed to you?
