James W. Moore says that just as Missouri is the ‘Show Me’ state, this is a ‘show me’ world, where talking a good game is not enough. Essentially, the world says to us, ‘If you’re a Christian, then show me!’
Moore contends that we, as Christians, must show the world that our faith is not only a way of believing but also a way of behaving – that it is not just something we celebrate on Sunday, but something we live out in the world every day.
In his warm, conversational style Moore explores characteristics that must be visible in our daily lives if we are to be effective witnesses in this ‘show me’ world – forgiveness, dedication, gratitude, love, compassion, a spirit of service, perseverance, strength, faith and vision. Only when these are evident in our lives will the world know that we are Christians.
