What does it mean to live an incarnational life?

When God comes to dwell among his people, he comes with a purpose. His presence doesn\\u2019t fill our lives and his presence doesn\\u2019t fill our corporate worship experiences so that we can sit, soak and sour.\\xa0

This is the mistake a lot of us make that truly value the presence of God. We become so focused on the presence of God; worship in the presence, soak in the presence, celebrate the presence, and all of that\\u2019s fine, but if we never understand the purpose of the presence, we end up becoming an inward focused click that\\u2019s always coming to the church to \\u201cget a blessing\\u201d and never doing anything with it.\\xa0

God didn\\u2019t fill this place with his glory last weekend so we would get goosebumps and walk out talking about how we \\u201chad church.\\u201d He filled this place with his presence to mobilize us outside these walls to BE the church, to live it out and be agents of change in our world.\\xa0
