Do you know someone who needs hope?

Question

What makes someone good at sharing the gospel? (The gospel is the good news of how God loves and saves people from their sin through the death and resurrection of Jesus.) So, what do you need to share this good news? 

For many of us, we don’t need another sermon or Bible study. You don’t need to be a preacher or have a microphone and a platform. You don’t even need to have all of the answers or eloquent words. 

You just need to be available to the God who sends ordinary people into ordinary places with extraordinary news. Wherever you go, you carry this message of hope, truth, grace, and love. Your words and your life can point other people to Jesus. 

May we strive to be what Paul calls “Christ’s ambassadors” (2 Corinthians 5:20). Are you open to having that conversation? Pray with that person? How is God leading you to point someone to Jesus today? Remember this one thought: God sends ordinary people with extraordinary news. If you want to be open to who God might send you to today, pray with us:

A Prayer to Carry Good News

God, it’s humbling to think that you trust me with your good news. 

I am ordinary. You and your good news are extraordinary. 

Please open my eyes to someone around me who needs hope today. 

Give me the courage to use my words and actions to point others to you. 

I want to love as you have loved me. 

Amen.
