"Let's Do Lunch"

I am on vacation this week at the beach with all of my family.  It is wonderful.  I am currently sitting on the back porch listening to "Revelation Song" by Gateway worship, looking at the ocean!

I have also been reading a book that has been challenging me.  It is called "Total Church" by Tim Chester and Steve Timmis.  The following made me think:

"A woman once told me about the difficulties she faced as a Brit fitting into American culture.  One of her struggles was with people who said, "Let's do lunch."  She expected them to phone and arrange a date.  They never did.  "Let's do lunch" was just an idiomatic way of saying farewell.  We all say, "Let's do mission," but does it carry any more intent than "Let's do lunch"?

I was convicted!

Your thoughts?
