This one might be challenging — but that’s kind of the point. 👀If we believe God is real…if we really believe Jesus is who He says He is…and that the Holy Spirit lives within us…👉 Why are we so often content with being the “Christian version” of things instead of just being excellent?Why do we feel the need to label and brand everything with ✝️ crosses, 🕊️ doves, 🐟 fish, and 📖 verses?Are we leading with the symbols because we don’t fully trust the substance?Are we afraid we can’t actually hang in the marketplace without the religious shorthand?In this episode, I talk about what it might look like to live in such a way that:✨ we embody the cross✨ we embody the resurrection✨ we embody the Word✨ we embody the lightNot just quote Scripture — but become living expressions of it.Not just build “Christian culture” — but culture, period.This is a call to legitimacy.Not in a prideful way — but in a bold, Spirit-empowered, whole-hearted way.We weren’t meant to be JV. 🏈And if Christ lives in us…why are we acting like we don’t belong on the field?🙅 No shame.🙅‍♂️ No shade.Just an honest invitation to consider how we show up in the world — and what we might be settling for.⸻✨ Want more reflections like this?Check out my monthly newsletter The Most Important Thing______@THEREALRYANCOLEMAN
