Connect with the UnChurched
Many Christians attempt to connect with those in their communities who are not part of their faith communities with programs and formulas. But when we see that God has not divided the world into sacred and secular, we are free to embrace those who are different from us in sacred friendship. Like Jesus becoming human, we can form meaningful connections with those who are not part of a church naturally and lovingly.

Most of us don’t connect new technologies to our faith. After all, Jesus never had a Facebook profile. He didn’t post on Instagram or even have a smartphone. No wonder we struggle to imagine the Bible has anything to say about this Brave New World we live in. But we can think theologically about the technology in our lives. We can learn not a new set of rules (How many episodes per day is too many when I’m binge-watching? How old should my kids be before they get smartphones?), but rather how to ask the right questions. Do our technologies help us bring about God’s surprising, mustard seed kingdom here on Earth as it is in Heaven?
