“Please invite someone to church this month”
Was it rude?no
Was it quirky?no
Just simple and with urgency. I take the word “please” as a sincere care for those who are lost. It says “someone” not saying it has to be some big drawn out thing but a simple invitation as you run in to someone. Don’t get me wrong. I DO believe that if you have a relationship with a person they are more apt to go. but that isn’t always the case. I just invite anyone I come into contact to and have a conversation with.
It seems crazy not to! I mean we truly hold the key to freedom of sin, shame, and a life of eternal damnation! They can be cleansed of sin and made whole again by the the choice we make to invite them to the rest of their life.That is great news! Uncontainable news! Or is it?
One bumper sticker saying one simple
thing. “Please invite someone to church this month”.
I may not know you but I would love see you at my church. It’s a great place and I believe you can find freedom, hope, friendship, encouragement, grace, and love there in so many ways. I only ask that you be open.
Your turn.
Read this passage before going further – John3:1-21
What do you do when you don’t understand what you believe is true?
I know that is a HUGE question but I am curious as to how others respond to this circumstance. I was reading this passage and saw how fast Nicodemus was confused and wondered just what was going on in his mind. I mean the way Jesus put it at first had him puzzled! I’m sure I would have been the same way. But through that conversation, though confused, Nicodemus knew that Jesus was the Son of God and that whatever He was saying was truth.
When I find things in the Word like this I just dwell on it for a couple days so that’s what I’m doing with this. I hope some of you join me in this and comment on my page. I REALLY want to know your thoughts. Here’s to growing together!
Well its been snowing like crazy around our parts and it’s had me thinking of this song Audrey Assad wrote. Check it out. Great description of my Savior and absolutely moving.
A lot of times people will say to me “Man, I don’t really like to worship.” And I respond with “What do you mean you don’t like to worship?!” then I get “Well, I don’t like to sing..” Then I realized how confused they were. They thought that singing was the only form they could participate in. Before I go on I must say that I believe if we are to show up to church, then we are to participate in worship in song. I have a hard time seeing Heaven and only the people who feel like singing and worshiping do that. In a church service I believe, unless you are not a believer, that you should be trying to engage with God…..even if you don’t like to sing or aren’t the best singer. God loves our worship no matter what the sound. As long as it is authentic and true.
Now! back to where i was going. There are tons of ways to worship God and I am interested in things everyone else does. Write a comment below and take a look together at some different ways to worship our King.
