The Gospel of Your Salvation

In Acts 1:6, it appears that the disciples were distracted from the mission Jesus was giving them. What are some distractions we deal with that keep us from sharing the good news with others?

What did it mean for Jesus to command his disciples to be “witnesses” in not only Jerusalem, but also “in all Judea and Samaria”?

Do you remember the first time someone shared the gospel with you? Who was it? How was that experience?

In Boo’s story, he heard the gospel shared around a dinner table with a few friends and a friend’s parents. If you were going to share the gospel with a friend, who else would you want to “be at the table” with you?

Who in your life needs to hear good news for a change? Who do you know that needs to hear the gospel of salvation in Jesus Christ?

Pray for God to open a door for you to share the good news. Perhaps there is someone who comes immediately to mind here, or perhaps not, but regardless, ask God to help you identity who that person is. It may be someone who has never obeyed the gospel, or it may be someone who has but hasn’t been living like it. Pray for God to show you that person, pray for that person, and pray for an opportunity to reach that person.
