5 Ways to Share the Good News (Because It's Essential) 🗣️ with Jenna and Steph
The world feels heavy right now. There is heartache and pain and suffering, and, with that, a renewed searching. There is a people searching for answers, for clarity, for truth, for hope.People are hungry. They're hungry for hope. They're hungry to believe. They're hungry for a life worth living for. They're hungry for a love worth dying for.They may not know it yet, but they're hungry for Jesus.And it's our time to tell the world about Him. It's our time to reignite the missionary heart that is within each one of us by way of His Holy Spirit. It's our time to set the world on fire with the love of Jesus, the truth of His life, death, and resurrection, the power of a love that poured out to save the world from death forever.Not all of us are called to be missionaries in foreign countries or to speak from stages (although thanks be to God for the ones who are), but all of us can bring the love of Jesus to the people right in front of us. At the grocery store. At school pickup. Around the dinner table. Online. At work. Right where we are.
