We Share Jesus
from First Baptist Joplin · host John Swadley
John Swadley | Acts 16:27-31Pastor John Swadley reminds us that sharing Jesus isn’t just a duty — it’s the heartbeat of a healthy church. Through stories of a rotten tomato, a businesswoman, a fortune-teller, and a Roman jailer, he paints a vivid truth: everyone needs Jesus — the good, the bad, and the ordinary.Good people need Jesus because morality can’t erase sin. Bad people, even those who feel beyond saving, can find grace. And ordinary people — like the jailer who nearly gave up on life — can find purpose and peace through faith in Christ.This message drives home one clear call: stop assuming who’s “too good” or “too far gone.” The gospel is for everyone. Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved — then go and share that good news with the world.
