My major gripe...
My major gripe is that we are often more interested as Christ followers in spending time with other Christ followers when we ought to be spending time with those who do not know Jesus.
This gripes me...
We have too many holy huddles and not enough unholy muddles.

I understand your point Bob, but this was also an issue with the early church. They enjoyed fellowship and the power of God among themselves to such a great extent that God had to providentially send persecution to scatter them to the lost world. Although I believe individual Christians did hang out with, love and share their faith with lost people, the Bible gives most of the credit to the apostles, deacons, and others commissioned for missionary evangelism. Makes me wonder about our approach to evangelism. Maybe the reluctance to share is natural even for sincere believers.
Let's push em over the edge and out of the building. If the main thing would become sharing Jesus - they wouldn't have an excuse for not sharing. Seems to me that going to church has replaced going to the world.
