00:00Have you ever heard the word evangelism? It's simpler than you may think and it's for every
00:11believer. It's sharing the good news of Jesus with others. Even if you are in the early phases
00:19of experiencing Christ's life-changing love, you have news worthy of sharing. You were dead
00:25and now you're alive. Your salvation is a miracle. Our world needs the hope and healing that only
00:32Jesus offers. The only qualification you need is that you've put your hope in Jesus. Evangelism can
00:39be as simple as telling your own story of finding that hope. Colossians 1 verse 6 says. This same good
00:47news that came to you is going out all over the world. It is bearing fruit everywhere by changing
00:53lives, just as it changed your lives from the day you first heard and the day you first understood
00:59the truth of God's wonderful grace. God's kingdom is always expanding. As you share God's truth with
01:07others, you're participating in extending his kingdom here on earth. You are acting as Jesus' hands and
01:13feet to show his amazing love and grace to the whole world. This is his plan and this is a beautiful
01:20thing. Something wonderful has happened in your life. And you get to share that news with everyone.
01:28You were saved out of death by the radical grace of God through Jesus' innocent blood shed for you on
01:34the cross. Your sins were completely paid for and you are now debt-free. Let's follow Paul's example in
01:41Romans 1 verse 16. He said, I am not ashamed of this good news about Christ. It is the power of God at work,
01:51saving everyone who believes. This gift is for everyone who will receive it. When you share your
01:57joyful news with your friends and loved ones, they will encounter the gospel, which is living and
02:03working in your life. God has given the church as a gift to the world. He has entrusted the church
02:10with his mission to tell others about the good news found in Jesus. In Mark 16 verse 15, Jesus says,
02:18Go into all the world and preach the good news to everyone. Will you do what Jesus has asked?
02:26Let's pray. Father, thank you, you are so good. You desire that everyone, everywhere, would embrace
02:33your gift of forgiveness and eternal life. Thank you for making me new. You have done something
02:39wonderful in my life. I need your help to be bold in sharing the good news so that others may
02:46experience the freedom I've found in you. In Jesus' name, amen.
