    When we share our faith, we don’t know ahead of time whether or not the soil is fertile; but if we are faithful at broadcasting the seed of God’s Word, then if it happens to land in fertile soil, it will take root and begin growing.

It appears to address the fear of failure in evangelism. Allow me to share from the church statistical ...read more

    Speaking God's Word is fraught with risk, yet God accomplishes His purpose through His Word. Therefore, we must speak God's Word despite the risks.

    Why do you think Jeremiah was so ‘afraid’? It’s not really hard to figure out, is it? God had a message He wanted delivered, and He wanted Jeremiah to deliver it.
