It's a whole 'nother topic, but there would be many more Christians in the world today if we poured coffee (even as a waitress), went to ball games (if we believe in going to the games), and so forth as representatives of the One we profess on Sundays.
If we lived every minute what we say we believe, if we lived our lives "in Jesus name," or as He would want us to, no matter where we were or what we were doing... what a witness that would be!
