What is a consumer, Christian?
Jumping from church to church and looking for the next thing to make you feel fulfilled may seem like the answer at first, but over time we start to realize that something is still missing. Christians are called to be more than consumers, who view the church as a place to receive what they desire. In scripture, we see a deeper relationship between the body of christ called discipleship. John, among others, provides examples of what discipleship looks like; and how this calls us to a deeper relationship by abanding consumer Christianity.
