The Power of Storytelling
The power of storytelling evokes emotions, imagination, and entertainment all while teaching a lesson. Whether it was hard lessons of discipline Jesus shared or encouragement to trust God and not worry, Jesus used the power of storytelling to draw people to His heart, and we can do the same.
We’re called to be like Jesus in everything we do. Shouldn’t that include how we approach others, share hard things, or apply Jesus’ teaching to every aspect of life? We can be like Nathan in 2 Samuel who approaches David about his wrongdoing through a story to help him see his sin. Whether it’s calling out wrongdoing in another brother or sister or building them up in the faith, we can open the door to the heart of Jesus and His love for us through the power of storytelling to point them to the truth of Scripture–one thought provoking story at a time.

Until the whole world hears
There are billions of people around the world who need the hope of the Gospel. There are men, women, and children crying out for rescue. Seeking peace. Craving justice. Wondering if this breath will be their last.
And this is the hard truth: the very real hell they are living in right now on earth will continue for eternity if they do not hear the Good News of the Gospel and profess Jesus as Lord over their life.
Christians, this reality should spur us on. We should not, can not, and must not be idle. We have a clear and specific call on our lives. To go into all the nations and make disciples and teach them the Word of God (Matthew 28:20 - 21).
