Invitation to a meal

Ed Stetzer in Outreach magazine asked a great question for every Christian and even more so for those of us in church planting. Ponder what he had to say, "Jesus was accused of hanging out with the wrong crowd because, among other things, he went to other people's homes for dinner! Here's a simple question: When was the last time an unchurched person invited you to dinner? Skip the excuses: 'Well I go and witness to people,' or, 'They're afraid of me because I'm a pastor.' Just be honest. Are you the kind of person other people want to hang around? Apparently, Jesus was."
