Religion & Spirituality
No one likes the "workout" guy. The one always decked out in gym clothes, talking about his training, his diet, his routine, and always willing to point out ways that you could get into better shape, too! We know we need to do better, and we sometimes don't like being around the constant reminder of our shortcomings.But do we let that attitude seep into our lives as disciples? After all, no one likes the person who wears his religion on his sleeve, and Jesus said not to do our works to be seen by men. And we're raised in a culture that tells us religion is best when kept to yourself.Our challenge is that God calls us to be fanatical in our devotion, in our pursuit of virtue and righteousness, in our desire to do good works in this life. Do we feel compelled to tone that down for the world? Or do we drive ourselves to be that person who lives and breathes the gospel of Christ?
