Do I Love Him This Much? - #6621
Music is often a separate compartment in many of our lives where we've put up a "No Trespassing" sign for Jesus. We say, "Well, that's just my entertainment." No! No, it's an important part of who you are. So important you won't let Jesus touch it.

Worthy Christian witness - the difference between proselytism and true evangelism with integrity
“Preach the gospel at all times – if necessary, use words.” A comforting thought, uttered by Francis of Assisi 900 years ago. Too comforting.
Despite spending well over half my life with my mission, my natural tendency is to keep quiet and hope my light is shining. But Arthur Glasser (Announcing the Kingdom, Baker 2003, p. 156) reminds us that ̶...evangelization of the world is a matter of both words and activity. It cannot be reduced to mere presence without dismissing all the valid data in the New Testament about imploring people ‘on Christ’s behalf: be reconciled to God.”

"Honest" in the Bible: Proverbs 24:26
God expects His followers to embody the truth in everything they do and say. That means they are to behave with complete honesty in their words and actions. This verse praises an "honest answer."
