Crossing lines of commitment

Behave.
Believe.
Belong.

Some thing that these are the lines of commitment a person travels through, not necessarily in that order, when it comes to faith in Jesus and involvement with a church.

I think, when it comes to lines of commitment, they are... volunteering, praying and singing.

When someone first involves themselves in these activities, which either seem odd to the outsider of the faith or require a degree of sacrifice, then they are crossing a commitment threshold.

It’s the crossing of these invisible doorways which indicate an inward transformation. 

With these markers, amongst others, we can begin to determine their increasing level of comfort and commitment.
