lest we forget

I saw this on Ragamuffin Soul.com--It is becoming one of my favorite blogs.

There is a gaping hole in the middle of all of our Sunday services.

We try to fill it with cool videos.
We try and fill it with social justice.
We try and fill it with tree hugging Christianity.
We try and fill it with God is love.
We try and fill it with unreal production.
We try and fill it with life application.
We try and fill it with smiles and winks.
We try and fill it with hands raised and hearts seated.
We try and fill it with Martin guitars and Orange amps.
We try and fill it with “Go after the heart of God”’s and “Lift up your voice”’s
We try and fill it with singing loudly and harmonizing beautifully.
We try and fill it with internet campuses and Sunday tweets.

But at the end of the day, the hole is still there.
At the end of the day, the hole is still gaping.
Because although all that stuff is good,
None of it is the Gospel.

We must never forget that the only thing capable of filling it…
Is Jesus Christ.

Lest we forget.
