Why Should You Share Jesus with Others? | The Rescue | Ed Young
Your ability to help others God has placed around you is determined by your willingness to share your rescue story with them.
Once Jesus has rescued us, we are called to help rescue others. Why is it that so many people struggle to share with others the rescuing power of Jesus? Every day there are people all around us who are drowning and don’t even realize it! During this sermon, Pastor Ed Young unpacks why we must use our sphere of influence to reach others for Jesus. The ring is the thing, the hope is the rope, pull so the house will be full!
Acts 1:8, “…you will be My witnesses…”
We do the throwing, and God does the towing.
