"Father, let us be altogether here."

These words were spoken a few months ago in chapel by Pastor Ron Berrus.  His main point was this:  if we are not faithfully serving Christ today, we can have no assurance that we will serve him in the future.  In Fools Rush In, Carl Trueman makes a similar point.  He says:

"There may be bigger churches, there may be better churches, but here is where we find ourselves; here is where the Lord has put us; here is where we are to serve and to love our fellow believers in Christ" (p. 90).

My question is this:  If God has placed us here at BBC, what is our responsibility to serve Christ now, in this place?

I know we are not yet leaders, we are not ready to pastor a church, but does this excuse us from faithfully serving Christ while we are here at BBC?  Since we see school as our main priority, we finish our schoolwork and we "hang out," but this causes us to miss the real needs that exist all around us - the people who are certainly not saved, the people whose faith is on the edge, the people who are planning on going into ministry but are spiritually immature.  BBC is not a "Bubble of Baptized Christians", but it is a place where the bubble of assumption keeps us from looking for needs (because "there are none") and living out our faith (because that "is for tomorrow").  My question is this, if not us, then who?
