Can you tell a fake when you see it? Here is a website that the Secret Service offers to help people spot fake money. Here is another link about a guy who actually created a counterfeit bank that fooled a lot of people and stole around 650,000 cash money. That is a pretty serious fake. I think most of us though would like to think we are pretty good at spotting a fake.
At Rēl Community on Sunday Night we will be having conversations about Authentic Faith. Not the counterfeit stuff. Haven't we all met people who know how to put a good church face on, but when the cards are down they don't resemble a Christian at all? Or people who are good at pretending that everything is alright, but we all know that things are really a mess.
It is safe to say that all of us are fake in one way or another. Who really doesn't spend part of their day 'acting' like someone they are not. I'll admit that I do it. What is important though is to realize that and be honest about it. Do we have a faith that is real? Or is our faith just another one of our masks that we wear every now and again to fool people?
