One of the most natural, beautiful, and life-giving thing that the church ever does is to multiply. In Matt. 28:19-20, Matthew wants every disciple to feel the thrill and responsibility of the mission to make disciples. 

Finding your voice is not just for pastors. Every single disciple of Jesus is called and empowered to voice the gospel. Here are five things that we learn about evangelism from Romans 10.

Rather than avoiding, assimilating, or attacking our culture, we are reminded from Acts 17 that we are to engage our culture with the Gospel.

Although Peter and John had no formal training, they spoke with passion and conviction when they were brought before the Jewish leaders in Acts 4.  We learn that gospel boldness is not about swagger or arrogance and overconfidence, rather it is a freedom to speak, combined with a growing understanding of the gospel. The person who has tasted the healing power of God cannot help but speak about what they have seen and heard!

Our salvation is all the work of God for us through Christ, but Paul reminds us at the end of 2 Corinthians 5, that everyone who has experienced the reconciling power of God is now an ambassador of the grace of God.

Pastor Xavier Torrado, from Redeeming Grace Church and our mission partner in Puerto Rico, points us to three important marks for the Christian Life from Acts 20.

Fear can keep us from acting on the God-given desire to tell others about Jesus Christ.  In 2 Corinthians 5, we learn that the love of Christ is the key to overcoming fear in gospel conversations.

On Covenant Renewal Sunday we learn from Luke 14 that Jesus makes a radical call to those who will follow him. God's grace is absolutely and amazingly free, but it is not cheap, and it will cost you something.

From Luke 15 we see that God tirelessly and passionately pursues sinners. Jesus is the friend of sinners, and scandalously so. This is the second sermon from our Multiply series.

In Psalm 69 we see that those that God loves still face suffering, and that suffering may come because of our faith in God. But because Jesus entered into our suffering and ultimately gave his life on a cross for our sins, our suffering is not eternal, but through him brings us redemption and reconciliation to God.
