Sharing Together for Tomorrow: Day 1

What non-Christian friend are you praying for? When was your last opportunity to share your faith?

by David Joynt on September 25, 2016


ACTS 1:6-11

Church Challenge: Wider Witness 

All around us are Presbyterian congregations who have much to give and share with the world, but they are dying. They cannot meet the challenge of a Wider Witness. Used to a world where church excellence, by itself, attracted people who were searching for communities of faith, they have not adapted to the culture where secular values reign.

Yet Jesus’ expectation for us is the same as it was for the first disciples: “You shall be my witnesses, in Jerusalem, Judea, and Samaria, and everywhere else!” They were faithful to that assignment, among their family and friends and their co-workers and neighbors. Because of their faithfulness, we are here today, two millennia later and a continent away.  If they could impact a hostile empire, can we not impact a skeptical culture?

What non-Christian friend are you praying for?

When was your last opportunity to share your faith?
