Still SALTi?
Let's take a test to see if you are successfully using the Southwest church family as it is intended. On a scale of 1-5 (1= Not at all; 5 = Praise God, yes!):
___ I can say that the mission of my life resembles the mission of Jesus.
___ My character is more like Christ's character today than it was a year ago.
___ The actions that I take line up with the priorities that Jesus modeled.
___ My words, attitudes, behaviors, and beliefs strike Christ's balance of grace & truth.
And finally:
___ I have a group of close friends who love me, accept me, challenge me, and know me well enough to answer the above questions for me.
___ I have a group of close friends that I love, accept, challenge, and know well enough to answer the above questions for them.
There are lots of perks that come from belonging to the Southwest church. But ultimately, we believe that we are succeeding when you have utilized us to engage in spiritual relationships with a few others who you are helping to live in and like Christ, and they are helping you.
Do you have a small group of spiritual friends whose common love and bond is the life and mission of Jesus Christ? If so, you understand why we call this success.
If not, why not?
