It Only Takes One:

Image
Reaching a Soul, Changing a World We often think that the world is changed by massive movements, powerful platforms, or public figures with worldwide reach. But the truth is, most of the world’s spiritual awakenings began not with crowds—but with one person. It only takes one. One person sharing their faith. One kind word. One prayer. One life changed by Jesus, who then reaches others. Think of Andrew in the Bible. He wasn’t one of the more prominent disciples like Peter or John. He didn’t write any books of the New Testament. But what Andrew  did  do changed the world—he brought his brother Peter to Jesus (John 1:40–42). And Peter, as we know, became a pillar of the early church, preaching at Pentecost where thousands were saved. Behind every great movement of God is someone like Andrew—an “ordinary” believer who chose to reach one. Sometimes we hesitate to share our faith because we can’t reach everyone. But Jesus never asked us to reach everyone at once. He asked us to reac...

Ordinary People, Extraordinary Mission

Image
Ordinary People, Extraordinary Mission When Jesus said, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…” (Matthew 28:19, NKJV), He wasn’t speaking to scholars, kings, or celebrities. He spoke those world-changing words to a group of everyday men — fishermen, a tax collector, and a few others whose names history nearly forgot. Yet they went on to ignite a movement that continues to this day. Why? Because when ordinary people say “yes” to an extraordinary God, the results are anything but ordinary. This post is about you. It’s about your neighbor. It’s about the woman who bags groceries and the man who fixes fences. It’s about the 85-year-old who prays daily and the teenager still learning what faith means. The Great Commission wasn’t reserved for the spiritual elite — it’s for every follower of Christ. And the beautiful truth is this:  God specializes in using ordinary people for His extraordinary mission. Jesus' Choice Was Intentional The disciples were not known for greatness by ...

Why Jesus’ Last Words Must Be Our First Priority

Image
Post 2   Title:   Why Jesus’ Last Words Must Be Our First Priority Before ascending to heaven, Jesus gave His followers a final command—not a casual suggestion, not a farewell blessing, but a clear and urgent mission: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit…” —  Matthew 28:19, NKJV These words were not only for the eleven disciples gathered on the mountain. They were for every believer in every generation. They are His final words, and they must become  our first priority . A Divine Assignment Jesus had just conquered death and the grave. Standing victorious, He didn’t ask His followers to retreat and reflect, but to advance and proclaim. His directive was global in scope and deeply personal in nature: make disciples. This is not simply about evangelizing or counting conversions—it is about helping others enter into a growing, transforming relationship with Jesus Christ. This ...

Post 1: The Great Commission Starts with You

Post 1: The Great Commission Starts with You Key Verse: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” —Matthew 28:19 (NKJV) Blog Article: Before Jesus ascended to heaven, He left His followers with a command—not a suggestion, not a side mission, but  the mission:  “Go and make disciples of all nations.”  These words, known as the Great Commission, were spoken to a small group of disciples—but they echo through time to reach every believer today. This includes you. You might be thinking, “But I’m not a preacher or missionary. I haven’t been trained. I don’t know what to say.” But the Great Commission was never meant for professionals alone. It’s a calling for every follower of Christ. It’s not just about going across the ocean—it’s about going across the street, reaching across the lunch table, or even reaching out online. The original Greek for “Go” in Matthew 28:19 is often interprete...

Go and Tell: Living the Great Commission Today

Go and Tell: Living the Great Commission Today Jesus didn’t leave His followers with a suggestion—He left them with a mission. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you...” (Matthew 28:19–20, NKJV). These final words, known as the Great Commission, were not just meant for pastors, missionaries, or theologians. They were given to all believers. To me. To you. In our modern world—filled with distractions, fears, and doubts—it’s easy to forget that the most urgent task remains unchanged: sharing the love and salvation of Jesus Christ with those who do not yet know Him. Over 3 billion people today still have little or no access to the Gospel. Millions live and die having never heard the name of Jesus. Yet even in our own neighborhoods, workplaces, schools, and families, people are longing for hope. And that hope lives in you. Go and Tell ...
