In this episode of The Daily Grind, John Spencer challenges us to embrace our calling as God’s living love letters to the world. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 3:2–3, he reminds us that our lives are meant to be read by everyone, reflecting the heart of Christ through our actions and attitudes. Yet, as Brennan Manning warned, hypocrisy can turn people away from God when our words and our lifestyles don’t match. John uses the modern analogy of spam and junk mail to illustrate how Christians sometimes present their message—inauthentic, pushy, or irrelevant—when God calls us to be personal, genuine, and life-giving. Through a series of self-reflective questions, he encourages us to examine whether our actions glorify God, inspire hope, and reveal Christ’s love. Ultimately, love is the defining mark of a true disciple and the most powerful gift we can offer. John closes with a heartfelt prayer for God to shape our lives, season our words, and make us faithful messengers of His grace.
