Ep. 402: Who Is My Community?

How do you know who God wants you to reach with the gospel? In this episode of Guided by Faith, Ryan Woods introduces the biblical concept of “oikos,” a Greek word often used in the New Testament to describe a household or sphere of influence. Looking at examples throughout Scripture—from Andrew bringing Peter to Jesus to the Samaritan woman telling her town—Ryan shows that the gospel often spreads through relationships. Teens and young adults are encouraged to identify the people God has already placed in their lives: family, friends, classmates, teammates, and neighbors. By recognizing their God-given sphere of influence, listeners can begin praying intentionally and looking for opportunities to share the hope of Jesus with those closest to them.Listen and Subscribe:Apple Podcasts | SpotifyConnect with Us:Website: www.guidedbyfaith.netYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GuidedbyFaithPodcastInstagram: @guidedbyfaith_podcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review on your favorite podcast platform and share it with friends who might benefit from this message.***Pick up a copy of Jay’s new Journal: Renewed: The 365-Day Christian Gratitude Journal https://amzn.to/3MLWavlGuided By Faith is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.For more information visit www.ChristianParenting.org
