    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Apr 11, 2023
     | 1,067 views

    Jesus didn’t say, “Attend Me.” He said, “Follow Me.” He didn’t say, “Build Me a monument.” He said, “Make disciples.” Missional living is the natural result of authentic faith. It’s what happens when the Church stops simply doing religion and starts living out the mission of Christ.
