Inviting Who We Know

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 18, 2022

Perhaps some of us are feeling inadequate to do something for the kingdom. We can start by getting people to attend church. All it takes is to think of someone we know, and then to invite that individual to join us. It's that simple!

Where the pastor’s name is normally listed, someone had posted this: “Minister: ...read more
