God's Strategy
This makes sense because like the famous saying goes "People do not care how much you know till they know how much you care." Our lifestyle is the message. It is not about strategies or methods. It is about our relationship with the Father that will cause us to live differently. When they see us, they see Christ.
I was talking to a friend the other day over lunch and she said that she had a friend who thinks that Christians are very stupid people. To believe in such a God. Cause the message did not make sense to him. Saved by grace? Then he went to church and he encountered real people. People who are working professionals yet their life is so different. They are not stupid people who believe blindly. And it is their life style that touched him and now he is a Christian.
Even when we go on mission trips. It is the love of God that will touch the hearts of the people. The love of God for them. To reach out to those whom others see as outcasts. To care for those whom others reject.
God teach me more of Your holiness. What does it really mean? To be holy is much more than being good. Abstaining from doing good. God is holy and perhaps to be holy is to be more like Him. No wonder in life, there are so many storms. It is through the storms in life that God polishes us from the inside.

Strawberry madness
They even have pens, eraser, pencils, etc... too many pictures to put up.
But wait a minute, don't they market Jesus the same way? You can find the name of Jesus on nearly every product imaginable. We even have John 3:16 drinking water. Whatever brings in the money... for His kingdom of course!
