Grace on Tap4
Posted In Church,Faith
Churches should be like bars and keep an endless supply of grace on tap.
To a parched world, this life often feels like you’ve been working atop a roof on a scorching, hot day.
Churches can either offer an ice cold drink of grace…
Some warm, sour milk of religion…
Or nothing at all.
Too many offer the latter options.
We need more who offer the first.
Churches are to be paragons of grace.
What is the church but a people united by the gospel of grace found in Jesus?
On the cross, the keg of God’s grace was tapped and is available to all.
Forever overflowing into the empty steins of our lives and churches for a reason:
To receive it and share with others.
People can find better products and services elsewhere.
But no one and nothing should outgrace us!

Well said, J.
I’m pretty sure this is the first time I have ever heard/read of a bar used as a metaphor for Heaven. Plenty of other things, but never Heaven. You sir, are an amazing communicator. I hope to someday achieve such a level of competence! I love it!
[...] not as we should be. God also doesn’t leave us there. Likewise, a gospel-driven church has grace on tap. At the same time, honesty and authenticity are a crucial element of the gospel. When we can [...]
