What do You Offer?

[Pandemic - XIII]

What do you have to offer?

A promise of the future won’t cut it.
A reformulation, repackaging, or rearrangement of the old won’t do.
An eloquent monologue isn't helpful.
A more polished version of something else doesn’t fly.
A theory doesn't get us anywhere.

Allow me to rephrase: What do you have to offer now, that’s not merely a repackaging of what I already have, that’s not just talk or theory, and that is concretely and practically helpful?

The pandemic is forcing the question . . .

Of you.
Of your business.
Of your faith community.

Are we doing the hard work of asking ourselves?
