Being common is bad in our culture. But for the Christian, this is the regular course of life, in spite of the fact that many preachers are telling us we have top be radical and (hyper?) active. We are told to imagine the possibility that God has a vision for our life that is greater that what we are experiencing.
But the overwhelming testimony of Scripture is that God uses common, unnamed believers who are obedient and faithful in doing common things. A quick survey of 2Kings proves this.
From Acts 4:13 comes 3 principles that characterize faithful Christians.
1) I am ordinary, but Christ is extraordinary.
2) I am helpless, but Christ is all-powerful. A) We are given the promises of God B) We are given access to the only power that can change things.
3) I am not my own, but I belong to Jesus Christ.
Conclusion: We are to be ordinary because Christ is extraordinary.
