EVANGELISM

PSALM 48:10 (CEB)
Your praise, God, just like your reputation,
     extends to the far corners of the earth.

MATTHEW 10:27 (CEB)
As you go, make this announcement: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Get the word out to everyone everywhere; through Jesus God's kingdom is within reach.

DAILY FODDER
How is Jesus' approach and message different from what we usually think of as evangelism?

PRAYER
Far-sighted God, your vision for making your good news available to the whole world has resulted in my own salvation. Thank you. Forgive me for my limited vision of what this is all about. I have a hard time considering more than my small circle of like-minded friends. Broaden my outlook so that I'm more inclusive and my message is more holistic. I want to help the world see how close Jesus and his kingdom are. Amen.

THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
