Is Jesus leading us to do our good works, or are we attempting to lead Jesus by our good works?
Is Jesus’ power what is drawing people to God, or is it our attempts to convince people Jesus is powerful?
Are we trying to get people to follow Jesus, or to follow our methods of displaying Christianity in a cool way?
A fine line the church of Ephesus got called out for in Revelation 2:1-5.
Don’t let this happen to you:

that is a great question to ask Heidi; thanks for the reminder
