The PRESENTATION....

A few months back Jennifer prepared a meal that required cornbread. She pulled out my favorite Jiffy mix cornbread mix (you know, the one that taste like yellow cake). She fixed in a square pan, and cut it into squares. Our kids (7,5, and 4 at the time) proceeded to sing the yucky, yucky we don't like it song. We had them try it. They proceeded to sing the second verse. Fine. A few nights later, another meal called for the proverbial cornbread. Jennifer pulled out the SAME Jiffy mix. She prepared it this time in "muffin" papers (like a cupcake). We refered to these as "dinner muffins" and they loved them!! No yucky song, only second helpings. Same stuff, different presentation. Nothing really changed with the content of what they were eating. The delivery was different. As Christ followers, we are entrusted with the ultimate message. Our job is not to simply spread it around like cheap perfume. Our mission is to spread the Gospel in a useful, real, tangible, and understandable way. My goal is to work more on myself, and my presentation of the Gospel, so that non-believers won't sing the yucky song when I present the Gospel to them. Thanks for reading!!!!!!!!!!!!
