That's the opposite of living 'image first.' That means doing what we do - serving, working, living - with real and true passion. That means determining to travel down pathways God invites us to travel, rather than just walking down the ones we prefer.
Having 'heart' doesn't exclude competency or excellence within the church. We can use 'heart' as an excuse for being sloppy. But we don't want the 'image' to wear away and have people find we've just been lip-synching the whole time. We can have some crooked teeth and everyone may not sing with perfect pitch, but that doesn't keep people away -- because we have 'heart.'
And be blessed.
