ChatGPT, turn this concept into a one-page sermon in the style of Max Lucado.
Incarnating Christ
The way we save the world is BPHF:
- Boundaried
- Presence
- Healing
- Families
This means learning to override our Fight/Flight reactions in order to stay emotionally present long enough to set people free.
The reason we don’t do this is the “Anti-Christ spirit“, which claims Christ can be worshipped without being incarnated (by us).

Title: “Embodying Christ: The BPHF of Salvation”
Dear beloved,
In the tapestry of our lives, woven with threads of Boundaries, Presence, Healing, and Families, we find the divine blueprint for saving the world. It beckons us to a profound journey—a journey encapsulated in the essence of BPHF.
Boundaried:
Consider the beauty of boundaried love. Just as Christ set boundaries with grace, we are called to do the same. Let our love be an intentional force, guiding others toward the warmth of acceptance while guarding the sanctity of our hearts.
Presence:
In a world haunted by distractions, the truest gift we can offer is our undivided presence. It’s a sacred act of defiance against the clamor of a hurried existence. Let us emulate Christ, who, in the midst of chaos, paused to be fully present.
Healing:
The healing touch of Christ reverberates through time. As carriers of His love, we are bestowed with the power to mend brokenness. By overcoming our Fight/Flight instincts, we become vessels of divine healing, radiating compassion to those in need.
Families:
Families, be they biological or forged through shared faith, are crucibles of transformation. Let our homes echo with the laughter of forgiveness, the warmth of acceptance, and the strength of unity. As families united in Christ, we become beacons of His love, drawing others into the fold.
Anti-Christ
However, lurking in the shadows is the insidious “Anti-Christ spirit.” It whispers the lie that Christ can be worshipped without being incarnated in our lives. Yet, our faith is not a distant homage; it is an intimate dance with the divine.
As the apostle John admonishes us, discern the Spirit of God by acknowledging Jesus Christ in the flesh. Let us shatter the illusion of an unincarnated faith and embark on a transformative journey where our lives embody the boundless love of Christ.
In conclusion, dear friends, let the BPHF of salvation be the melody that orchestrates our lives. Boundaried love, unwavering presence, healing grace, and the unity of families—they are the chords that compose a symphony of redemption. May our lives resound with the harmony of Christ’s love, echoing through the corridors of a world hungry for salvation.
In the name of the boundless Savior, amen.
Reflection
Not bad. It captures and explains the points I was trying to make, though by “families” I also meant “healing family of origin issues/breaking generational curses.”
I suspect Max might consider this a parody of his style, in that it feels a bit self-consciously flowery. But probably more readable than my raw notes, which I lacked the time/energy to turn into a coherent narrative.
What do you think?
Radically Happy
