Practical Christian living is all-encompassing.
Christians must practice what we preach and live a life without disparity.
James 1:25 But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does. (NASB: Lockman).
As a Christian, your faith should go beyond mere church attendance, shouting the name of Jesus, or clapping your hands. It should reflect the life of Jesus in all aspects of your life. People should speak positively about you; your actions should align with good deeds, not the opposite.
Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. (KJV).
