Do you think evangelism still works?

You know, it’s really sad, but many people don’t think it does. I’ll tell you from experience, though, it absolutely works.

Do you know why it works?

Because the power has never been in us.

The Gospel is the power of God to save. It doesn’t depend on cultural trends, our status, or political beliefs. While the world constantly shifts, God does not, and neither does His message. We can be encouraged that our God never changes and neither does the Gospel.

What is the first step to walking with Jesus? Faith.

Before anything else, we must have saving faith—believing that Jesus is who He says He is and trusting that He will do what He has promised. It’s not just knowing about Him; it’s placing our full confidence in Him.

The same is true when it comes to sharing your faith.

We must be willing to trust that Jesus can and will do what He says He will do—that He can save to the uttermost and that He will never leave us nor forsake us. But we have to take that first step of faith.

Do you make New Year’s resolutions each year? If you don’t, why not?

Many people hesitate to make resolutions because they’ve failed to follow through so many times in the past that it doesn’t seem worth the effort anymore. To avoid disappointment, they simply stop setting expectations.

Sadly, many Christians take this same attitude into their faith.

Maybe you’ve messed up before, feel unqualified, or aren’t sure what to say when it comes to sharing your faith. Instead of stepping out in obedience, it feels easier to keep quiet and keep your faith to yourself.

But what if God is calling you to something more?
