 Memorize Colossians 3:2
Look at your walk with Jesus through the eyes of an alien, that is someone outside the church or someone 
   outside of your social circle, What do they see? Love, hate, rejection, acceptance, apathy or someone that truly
   cares.
 How might the life you live be a beacon that points people to Jesus?
