GOING PUBLIC

Here is a quote from First United Methodist Church in Santa Barbara, California. The heart of our Christian faith is Christ’s ministry of outreaching love. We are all called to minister wherever Christ would have us work to heal and free others. United Methodists believe in God’s grace, which means the unearned and loving action of God in our daily lives

A new minister was assigned at my church, in Las Cruces, New Mexico, where it is brown. he is extremely passionate about "Going Public--" doing church in a park, singing at the downtown Farmer's Market, etc. This is his passion, and my calling as a Christian is to take the gospel to all nations...and my question is...why have we not done this before? Why did St. Paul's wait for him to..."go public?"
