08 Share the Good News
from Eden Teachings Podcast Hosted by Eden Church
Among the words the New Testament writers used to describe followers of Jesus, perhaps none hit quite so close to home as the Apostle Peter’s description: “foreigners and exiles.”Walk the streets of most cities in the post-Christian West as a follower of Jesus, and you’re likely to feel the force of those words — this sense that you don’t quite “belong” in the surrounding culture; you’re a kind of spiritual refugee. For many of us, that feeling can turn our faith into, at best, an awkward conversation, and at worst, a personal hobby we would rather hide away. In the midst of that very real experience, it can be helpful to remember that the gospel is good news. And while there are those who will be turned off by it, others’ hearts might leap to believe it. They might even say, “Why didn’t you tell me this sooner?”Because, after all, it’s “good news … for all people.” (Luke 2v10) Jesus invites us to both show and tell this good news — for our deeds and our words to testify to the beauty of the life we have in him.Teacher: Caleb SprinkleText: Various
