It’s Time to Look Out

Friends, I’m writing you on Monday because I need to give you a heads-up about this weekend’s services.

We’ve had a wonderful time of study in Genesis since the first of the year. It’s been great. But starting this weekend we’re going to turn our attention outward to our unbelieving neighbors, friends, family, classmates and co-workers.  People for whom Jesus died, just as he did for us, but have yet to receive his offer of salvation.

We’re going to focus on them through Easter weekend. We’re dedicating the next several weeks to them and their salvation.

I have three requests of you:

If you haven’t been already, start praying for them. Pray that God will open their eyes and that they will surrender to Jesus. Pray for God to set them free. Pray for them by name.
Invite them to church with you. Invite them every weekend. I’m going to be teaching messages designed just for them. If you don’t ask them, they won’t know that you want them to come. Tell them we’re looking at the teachings and nature of Jesus and that the next several services are designed for them.
Buy them a copy of A Man Who Told Us the Truth and offer to read it and discuss it with them. I’ll be teaching on many of the same topics covered in the book. Our weekend services will be great conversation boosters and will lead right into the topics in the book. Ask them to make a six week investment in looking into Jesus. Don’t be afraid of them telling you no. Just ask them.

A Man Who Told Us the Truth is available for pre-order now. Order your copies here.

You can order the small group discussion guide here.

In the meantime, let’s get to praying. We have work to do.
