As a church, we ought to desire to be "worthy of imitation" in our faith, hope, and love. So much so, that the reputation of Christ goes out from us into the world. This is done through simple, faithful, and consistent proclamation of the gospel and obedience to the word. This week, look for ways to apply your faith in a manner that is worthy of imitation. As our faith is proven by our works, the joy of the Lord becomes our strength, and Christ is exalted for all to see.
