       If there really isn’t anything different you can tell about us, as Christians, then what’s the point? How are we going to shine our lights, be trustworthy models, and perhaps indeed lead individuals toward the truth, toward a relationship with God, if we are, in fact, pretty similar to everyone else. If we involve ourselves in questionable things, hang around the “gray areas,” people aren’t going to get it. And they won’t see a need for God, or to have anything much of what we have. We can’t make the best use of our time if we are taking all the time to explain away our behaviors, to explain away why we do what we do. No, we are to shine our lights well, so that when we do explain Christian ways, again, making the best use of our time—for that is how we do that—that folks actually benefit from being in our presence. Each of us has a presence before others, a way that we are before others.
