What if the greatest evangelist in your church isn't the person on stage? In John 4, the Samaritan woman encounters Jesus at a well and everything changes. She wasn't a pastor, theologian, missionary, or Bible scholar. She had a complicated past, a broken reputation, and more questions than answers. Yet after one encounter with Jesus, she became one of the first people in Scripture to bring an entire city to Christ. This powerful message from Pastor Byron Ellis explores how evangelism is not about having all the answers. It's about sharing what Jesus has done in your life. The Samaritan woman teaches us that God loves using ordinary people with imperfect stories to reach others with the Gospel. If you've ever felt unqualified, ashamed, or afraid to talk about your faith, this sermon will encourage you to take your next step in sharing Jesus with the people around you. Your testimony may be the bridge God uses to change someone else's eternity.

Discover the power of the two greatest commandments and how following them transforms your life, relationships, and walk with God. Learn to live in love, serve others, and fulfill every commandment in Scripture.Jesus taught us to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind, and to love our neighbor as ourselves (Matthew 22:36–39). This simple, yet profound truth sums up the law and the prophets, showing that obedience begins with a heart fully devoted to God.Loving God means putting Him first in everything—your time, resources, and priorities. Deuteronomy 6:5 reminds us to love the Lord with all our heart, soul, and strength. True devotion flows through prayer, worship, and faithful living daily.To love your neighbor is to act with compassion, mercy, and kindness to everyone you encounter, even your enemies (Leviticus 19:18). Jesus illustrated this in the parable of the Good Samaritan, showing love through practical action and selfless sacrifice.Following these commandments is more than rules—it's a lifestyle. When your actions come from love, you honor God, bless others, and reflect His character in your daily work, family life, and community (1 Corinthians 13:1–3).Love is the foundation for all obedience. When love drives your decisions, every commandment becomes achievable. You live without resentment, hatred, or selfishness, embodying Christ's heart and fulfilling God's calling in every moment.Step into a life fully aligned with God's will. Love God, love your neighbor, and let every action reflect mercy, grace, and purpose. Walk in the fullness of His calling and see how simple, obedient love can change your life and your world.Referenced Verses:Matthew 22:36–39Deuteronomy 6:5Exodus 20:3Luke 10:25–37Leviticus 19:18Romans 13:8–101 John 4:7–8-Social Media Ministries, founded by Spencer Coffman, is committed to sharing the Word of God with the entire world.

You are called. God calls each believer to step into a purpose and mission that only they can fulfill. This message explores the truth that anyone, regardless of their past, abilities, or circumstances, can be used by God for His work on earth. The Bible reminds us that when we are in Christ, we are made new, and the old is gone, replaced by a life empowered by the Holy Spirit. God's call is not limited by human standards, and His invitation is extended to everyone willing to say, “Here I am. Send me” (Isaiah 6:8).Many hesitate, thinking they are unworthy or incapable, yet Scripture shows that God specializes in using the humble, the weak, and the unexpected to accomplish His will. Even the most unlikely can bear fruit and impact the kingdom of God when they respond to His call with obedience and faith. Exactly as Saul, who persecuted Christians, became Paul, a mighty apostle, God transforms lives and equips them for His service (Acts 9:1–2, Acts 26:10–11).This sermon emphasizes that answering God's call is not reserved for those with wealth, influence, or extraordinary talents. God chooses the “foolish” and lowly things of the world to confound the wise, showing that His power works through humility and dependence on Him (1 Corinthians 1:26–29). Every believer, regardless of their background, can participate in the Great Commission by making disciples, sharing the gospel, and serving others faithfully in their current season.You are to start where you are, bearing fruit in your current situation and using your resources and time to glorify God. By being faithful with the little, God will grant greater opportunities. Whether it is local evangelism, ministry work, or being sent abroad (1 Corinthians 7:17, 2 Peter 1:10). Fruitfulness is measured by obedience, not circumstance, and God honors those who act in faith where they are planted.The call to bear lasting fruit is a clear invitation to action. John 15:16 teaches that God has chosen each believer to go and bear fruit that remains. Our responsibility is to begin now, trusting Him to guide each step and provide the means to accomplish His purposes. God equips the willing and rewards faithfulness with opportunities to expand His kingdom, demonstrating that nothing is impossible with Him.Ultimately, anyone can be called, and God desires that His people step forward in courage, obedience, and faith. The call is personal, immediate, and transformative. By embracing your calling, you participate in God's mission, bring glory to His name, and become part of the unfolding story of redemption and disciple-making in the world.Step into your calling, trust God's guidance, and allow Him to work through you. God has a plan for every believer, and He is waiting for your obedience to begin the work He has prepared.Referenced Verses:Isaiah 6:8Acts 8:1Acts 9:1–2Acts 26:10–111 Corinthians 1:26–291 Corinthians 7:171 Corinthians 7:202 Peter 1:10John 15:16-Social Media Ministries, founded by Spencer Coffman, is committed to sharing the Word of God with the entire world.

Micah, Dan, and Shawn continue to answer questions left over from the 2026 Conference.

[Recorded at the Block KC Conference on 5/09/26] How do I go from hello to the gospel? How do I bring up my faith without it feeling forced or awkward? If these are questions you are asking, good work. Life is enjoyed much more when we share our faith in Jesus. However, everyone needs to be trained on how to share. This breakout will teach you a practical way to share your faith and story of how you met Jesus Christ. 

Helping others is a fundamental command from God that brings blessing to both the giver and the receiver. God calls every believer to act generously, not only with money, but with time, wisdom, and spiritual guidance. Obedience to this command aligns your life with His Word and ensures that His blessings flow in your own life as you sow into the lives of others. Generosity is not optional—it is a spiritual principle that produces both earthly and eternal results.God makes it clear that doing good and sharing with others pleases Him, and ignoring those in need carries consequences. Hebrews 13:16 tells us to not forget to do good and to share, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God. Proverbs 21:13 warns that shutting your ears to the cries of the poor results in unanswered prayers, while Proverbs 28:27 promises that those who give will lack nothing. When you lend to the Lord by helping others, you participate in His provision, trusting His promises to repay what you have generously shared.Helping others is not limited to financial support; it includes mentoring, teaching, guiding, and sharing biblical wisdom. You may encounter someone in debt, struggling with life decisions, or spiritually unaware, and your role is to equip them with tools for success and growth in Christ. Sharing the gospel, discipling converts, and walking alongside believers as they grow in faith is part of this command. Matthew 28:19-20 reminds us to make disciples of all nations, teaching them to obey everything God has commanded, which includes helping those who are less fortunate spiritually, emotionally, or materially.Generosity cultivates faith and obedience, opening doors for God's blessings in your life. Psalms 34:10 declares that God provides for those who follow Him faithfully, and Proverbs 19:17 confirms that giving to the poor is equivalent to lending to the Lord. When believers serve others, they demonstrate Christ's love, enforce spiritual victory, and stir up the faith within themselves and those they serve. This is the principle of sowing and reaping: what you invest in others will return to you in God's timing and according to His perfect wisdom.Living under God's commands ensures that blessings flow and curses are avoided. Proverbs 28:9 warns that turning a deaf ear to God's instruction makes even your prayers detestable, emphasizing that obedience is essential to experiencing His favor. By helping others faithfully, you position yourself under the flow of God's provision and align your life with His promises. Generosity, service, and discipleship are not just good deeds—they are a calling that produces joy, fulfillment, and eternal impact.Let the Holy Spirit guide your actions as you seek ways to help, mentor, and uplift others. Whether through teaching, financial support, prayer, or sharing biblical truth, your obedience strengthens God's kingdom and ensures His blessings in your life.

Sharing your faith can feel intimidating—but it doesn't have to be. This episode breaks down the fear, excuses, and misconceptions that hold us back from sharing Jesus, and offers simple, practical ways to step into it with confidence. If you've ever felt unqualified or unsure, this conversation will help you take your next step.

Discover how to face trials, misfortune, and adversity with faith, perseverance, and hope as God works all things for your good. Many think that suffering is God's punishment, but Scripture reveals that much of what we endure comes from the enemy or natural consequences of our choices. By understanding this, we can respond with faith and courage rather than fear or despair. This teaching equips you to navigate challenges, maintain spiritual strength, and grow in perseverance, character, and hope (James 1:2; Romans 5:3-5).Through practical guidance on spiritual victory, this sermon shows how trials refine our faith and build resilience. Believers are reminded that Christ faced misfortune at the hands of the enemy yet overcame, demonstrating that through God, we can triumph over sickness, persecution, and adversity. Misfortune is an opportunity to strengthen faith, trust God's plan, and grow closer to Him. By claiming His promises, you can walk boldly in healing, protection, and provision (Philippians 4:13; Matthew 8:16-17).The sermon also teaches the law of sowing and reaping, emphasizing that while misfortune may sometimes result from our own decisions, God works in every circumstance to bring about His purposes. We are called to rejoice in our own trials, help others in their struggles, and avoid gloating over someone else's misfortune (Proverbs 24:17-18; Proverbs 17:5). By lifting others up and showing mercy, we reflect God's heart and advance His kingdom here on earth as it is in heaven.Ultimately, this message inspires believers to maintain hope, persevere in the face of adversity, and respond to life's challenges with faith, courage, and joy. By understanding misfortune, embracing spiritual growth, and standing firm in God's promises, we can turn trials into opportunities for victory, character development, and eternal hope. The teaching reminds viewers that through Christ, every trial can strengthen our faith, build endurance, and lead to a life marked by spiritual maturity and blessing (Romans 8:28; John 15:18-19).Referenced VersesJames 1:2Romans 5:3-5Romans 8:28Philippians 4:13Matthew 8:16-17John 15:18-19Proverbs 24:17-18Proverbs 17:5-Social Media Ministries, founded by Spencer Coffman, is committed to sharing the Word of God with the entire world.

As we look at SHARING JESUS this week, Pastor Amira reminds us that sharing begins with posture, not pressure. It's about remaining sensitive to the Holy Spirit's guidance; in our conversations, in our prayers, in our hearts, and how that sensitivity shapes the way we share Jesus with others.Listen in as we're invited to examine our hearts, releasing fear, assumptions, and judgment, so we can love others with sincerity, humility, and grace as we point them to Christ.

This biblical message unpacks the powerful principle found in Galatians 6:7–8: “Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.”God has established a spiritual law that governs life just as surely as physical laws govern nature. Every thought, word, action, and attitude is a seed—and every seed produces a harvest. This sermon explains how sowing to the flesh leads to corruption, while sowing to the Spirit leads to eternal life.Through passages such as Matthew 7:1–2, James 1:22, Matthew 6:33, James 4:4, and Jeremiah 29:11, this message reveals that blessings, growth, and spiritual fruit do not happen by accident. They are the result of consistent obedience, faithful living, generosity, and kingdom focus.The principle of sowing and reaping is not about manipulation or materialism; it is about alignment with God's design. When believers plant seeds of forgiveness, they reap freedom. When they sow righteousness, they reap peace. When they sow faithfulness, they reap spiritual growth. But when they sow selfishness, compromise, or worldliness, the harvest reflects those choices.This teaching challenges listeners to examine what they are planting daily—in their relationships, finances, priorities, and spiritual disciplines. A harvest does not appear overnight, but in due season it always comes. God's promises are sure, and His justice is perfect.Ultimately, this sermon is a call to intentional living. Sow into the Spirit. Seek first the kingdom of God. Trust the Lord of the harvest. When your life is planted in obedience to Christ, the fruit will reflect His faithfulness.Referenced Verses:Galatians 6:7Matthew 7:1–2Malachi 2:9Malachi 3:9James 4:4James 1:22Matthew 6:33Galatians 6:8Jeremiah 29:11-Social Media Ministries, founded by Spencer Coffman, is committed to sharing the Word of God with the entire world.

What does it really look like to follow Jesus and live on mission in everyday work and ordinary places? In this episode of Fuel for the Harvest, Nathan sits down with Forge speaker Olivia Humphrey to talk about being a Kingdom laborer at work—without pressure, performance, or having all the answers.Olivia shares real stories from her life as a barista, chaplain, and everyday follower of Jesus, including moments of rejection, awkward conversations, and unexpected opportunities to share the gospel. Together, they explore how prayer shapes our hearts, why weakness can be a strength, and how loving people well often matters more than saying the perfect thing.This episode is especially encouraging for Christians who feel nervous about sharing their faith, unsure of workplace boundaries, or discouraged by slow progress. It offers a refreshing reminder that God works through ordinary faithfulness, ongoing relationships, and hidden places of intimacy with Him.Topics include: faith at work, Kingdom laborers, sharing Jesus in everyday life, evangelism without pressure, prayer and intimacy with God, rejection and perseverance, and living on mission as an ordinary Christian.Fuel for the Harvest is a Christian discipleship podcast equipping everyday followers of Jesus to make disciples and live out the Great Commission.

Initial Feelings and Unworthiness Nervous about speaking. Feels unworthy of the opportunity to speak. Asks for prayers to calm nerves and for the Lord to have His way. Requests prayers for his wife to return to the will and house of God. Recalls a past experience at Mountain View Baptist Church where he made mistakes while preaching. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:1-2 Paul did not come with excellency of speech or wisdom. Paul determined to know nothing except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Prayer Asks God to take over his body and use him as a servant. Prays for God to speak to hearts and save those who don’t know Him. Thanks God for the opportunity to proclaim His Word. Expresses gratitude for Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. Observations and Reflections A door slamming shut at work prompted thoughts about God’s work. A strong wind pushed a large rock out of the way to slam the door. Burning brush at night led to reflections on life’s fleeting nature. Life is like a vapor, here today and gone tomorrow. Embers blowing in every direction. The Importance of Knowing Christ Paul focused on knowing only Christ crucified. Wants to be wise enough to win souls for Christ. Doesn’t want to see lives wasted, ending in hell. Noah’s Ark Noah built the ark as God instructed. Noah proclaimed God’s coming judgment and love while building the ark for 120 years. Noah told people about Jesus and the love of God. Noah warned of God’s wrath and the need for safety in the ark. “Pitching” the ark within and without symbolizes the blood of Jesus Christ. Pitch is the same as the blood that Jesus Christ shed. Believes Noah was telling people about Jesus. Whosoever will may enter the ark and be saved. Abraham and Isaac God told Abraham to sacrifice his only son on a mountain. Abraham prepared wood and traveled with Isaac and a servant to the designated place. Abraham got up early and prepared everything. Abraham told his servants that he and Isaac would worship and return. Abraham had faith that God could raise Isaac from the dead. Isaac questioned the absence of a lamb for sacrifice. Abraham said the Lord would provide a sacrifice. The mountain was on the same ridge as Mount Calvary. The blood shed on Calvary is still effective today. Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission for sin. Abraham looked around and saw a ram caught by its horns. It had to be caught by the horns to be without blemish. The ram was Abraham’s perfect sacrifice due to his obedience. Jesus as the Perfect Sacrifice Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, willingly sacrificed Himself. Jesus looked through time and chose to go because of God’s love and man’s wickedness. Jesus offered Himself as a perfect, spotless sacrifice. Jesus willingly laid down His life. Jesus came to take away the sins of the world for those who believe. Offering Oneself to God Wants to lay down his body and offer everything to God. Believes in having faith to trust in God. Sharing Jesus is an honorable act. The gospel provides life and salvation. Jesus regained what was lost in the Garden of Eden. Jesus walked the corridors of hell for us. Accepting Jesus into our hearts is all that is required. The work of salvation is finished; it’s up to individuals to accept it. Impact of Wise Women Miss Ruth Atkins and Miss Bernice Millsaps mentored him early in his ministry. Miss Ruth shared scriptures about being wise enough to win souls. Miss Bernice was 94 and Miss Ruth was 92. They invited him to quilt with them at Coralville Center. He initially sneered at the invitation but later accepted. He brought his mother along, surprising the women. The women were ready to sow the word of God. The Ark and God’s Provision The ark represents a seed with life inside. God shut the door of the ark. God gave mankind seven days to enter the ark. God provided a way through Jesus Christ. The mountain where Abraham was to sacrifice Isaac was on the same ridge as Mount Calvary. The Nail on the Tree Isaiah speaks of a nail hung upon a tree. The key to salvation was hung there for everyone, even the worst sinners. The key was hung in a sure place because of God’s love. Personal Testimony and Challenges Works with people daily and sees himself in them. Uses Greg Watson’s visit to his wife as an illustration. Sees the lost as a challenge. Was backslidden in his teenage years, turning to alcohol and other vices. Three preachers persistently shared the love of God with him. They would come up every night and tell him about the love of God. He initially hated their persistence but knew they were telling the truth. Their faithfulness and prayers eventually led him back to God. A preacher told him to repent or his wife would be lost. He repented and begged God back into his heart. God called him to preach the gospel while he was hunting. He resisted for six years until God saved his house. Doesn’t want anyone to end up screaming from hell because they didn’t know the truth. You can judge a tree by the fruit it bears. The Importance of Faithfulness and Love We need to be like Moses, standing in the gap. We need to be faithful to God. Love is the motivation behind discipline and correction. God’s faithfulness, justice, and grace are special. It’s not a waste to love the way Christ loved. Salvation and the Gift of God The wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). Hell was created for Satan and his angels. The gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ. Salvation is simple. Life is near, even at the last. God can cleanse the mind of sin and set captives free. Confessing with your tongue leads to salvation. The law cannot save you; only Jesus Christ can. Salvation is as simple as Peter stepping onto the water by faith. The scriptures are written simply enough for a child to understand. Trust in Him, believe in Him, and invite Him into your heart. God has no respect for a person or age. He knocks on the door and asks to be let in. Closing Remarks If he didn’t already have Jesus in his heart, he would run to the altar. Encourages listeners to renew their relationship with God. If you don’t know Him, this morning would be a good morning. If you have a burden for the lost, God will bless you.

February 22 2026 The book of Acts shows us that the Holy Spirit is still actively guiding ordinary believers to share the message of Jesus in everyday moments. In Acts 8, we see how God used Philip's willingness to follow the Spirit's prompting to reach one person, reminding us that God's mission often unfolds through simple obedience and intentional conversations. It challenges us to reflect on how the Holy Spirit might be leading us to take our own next step—whether that means placing our trust in Jesus, stepping out to share our faith, or following Him in obedience through baptism. About this Sermon Series: The book of Acts tells the story of how the exalted Christ sends His Spirit to empower His people to continue His work in the world. Through the Spirit's power, ordinary believers boldly proclaim the gospel, witness miraculous works, and form vibrant communities that embody God's welcome to all people. Acts traces how the church's witness, energized by the Spirit, extends from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth, revealing Christ's ongoing work through His people and the Spirit's leading in every new challenge and opportunity.

SHARING JESUS - It's hard to say we're following Jesus if we rarely share Jesus. So let's talk about what that should actually look like in our lives.

The Habit of Verbally Sharing Jesus - If sinners will be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our bodies. And if they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees, imploring them to stay... let not one go there unwarned and un-prayed for - Charles Spurgeon

The Book of Acts, teaches us that the early church shared everything in common, inspiring one another in their faith. Just as they connected over meals and prayers, our daily interactions can and should be opportunities to communicate the message of Christ. Philip met the Ethiopian eunuch on the road. He did not just pass by his chariot, but he engaged him in conversation. This ultimately led to the eunuch's conversion. Saints are compelled to engage with those we come in contact with. We are called to shine before men that they may see our good work. We are also called to embody the faith. So, whether we are on the job, at the store, playing basketball, or hanging out with friends, we have the opportunity to reflect God's love, mercy, peace, and humility. God is looking for us to share the good news and inspire others to explore their own relationship with Christ. The God who made the world and everything in it—he is Lord of heaven and earth—does not live in shrines made by hands. Neither is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives everyone life and breath and all things. From one man he has made every nationality to live over the whole earth and has determined their appointed times and the boundaries of where they live.”Acts 17:24-25 As we study, the lesson today, let's learn to make every connection be purposeful. Looking at our daily interactions, whether at work, school, or in our neighborhoods, as opportunities to share Christ.

Recorded at our “We Love Mission” conference, 31st January 2026.

Sharing Jesus is simpler than we think. It starts not with what we know, but with how we love. Follow Jesus' lead: Share his Good News by sharing life with others.

In Luke 19, Zaccheus heard that Jesus was coming through his town. Because he was of a small stature, he climbed a tree in order to get a good look and Jesus. His tactic worked! Jesus saw this despised tax collector and instead of judging him, invited Himself to Zacchaeus' house. He chose to have supper with a sinner which did not go well with the religious leaders. Unmoved by them, Jesus stepped into the life of a man who felt unworthy of the Master's attention and changed his life forever. For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.”Luke 19:10 In a similar fashion, we should be aware of those around us and be willing to meet them where they are. Our mission should be to create an opportunity to share Christ's message of love and redemption. As we study this lesson today, we will get a glimpse of the Apostle Paul's strategy in reaching others with the gospel so that some may be saved. Prayerfully, we will learn to share Jesus with others by taking the time to understand their strains and struggles and serve with them.

When my wife and I were on a mission trip to Rome, we were introduced to a man who grew up Catholic. At the age of twenty years old, he experienced a crisis due to those in the Catholic faith saying one thing but doing another. So, he decided to become an atheist, one who believes that there is no God. At the same time, he decided to go to the university to study philosophy. He pridefully wanted to use the tools he learned from philosophy to write a book against God and the Bible. First, he thought he would start with reading theology books, but those books were what others said about the Bible. So, he decided to read the Bible starting with the book of Matthew. When he finished reading Matthew, with a new understanding that he was a sinner, he fell down on his knees with tears in his eyes, and gave his heart to Jesus. After he rose to his feet, he felt great joy because he was born again.  For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.”John 3:16 This story is a testimony to Jesus having the power to save those who seek to disprove Him. In this lesson, we will see that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever put their faith in Him will not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16).

In John 1:43–51, Philip meets Jesus and can't keep it to himself — he invites Nathanael to “come and see.” This 2 Minute Disciple devotional challenges us to share Jesus with others, both in our personal relationships and through our online presence.

This world is full of brokenness. Children are against their parents and vice versa. Husbands and wives are at odds with one another. Housing, gasoline, clothing, and food prices are high. The amount of senseless violence and destruction are continuing to rise. These along with natural disasters have left people distressed, discouraged, restless, and confused. They can see that they need help in navigating through this life of uncertainty. They have placed in the window of their hearts a “help wanted” sign. I have found that there are two persons interested in the job. John 10:10 says, “A thief (Satan) comes only to steal and kill and destroy.” Satan does not want to improve your life but wants to demolish it. Yet, on the other hand Jesus said, “I (Christ) have come so that they may have life and have it in abundance.” Jesus wants to change your life because having Him matters. A thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come so that they may have life and have it in abundance.” John 10:10 As we study these verses together, we'll see that Jesus has left a brief resume listing His credentials and capabilities. Join me in discovering why Jesus matters and why you need to give Him the job of ruling and reconciling our lives.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20251205dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion “Come,” he replied, “and you will see.” John 1:39 Come and See Whenever something wonderful happens to us, what do we do? We tell someone. We call out to friends and family, inviting them to experience it with us. Whether it’s a sunset, a newborn baby, or the last-second shot that wins the game, we grab their attention and say, “You’ve got to come see this!” We want to share our excitement and joy with others. This is what Andrew did. Andrew had just met Jesus and spent time with him. Once Andrew understood and believed who Jesus truly was—the Lamb of God and the promised Savior—he couldn’t keep the news to himself. He immediately ran to find his brother, Simon Peter, with the excited announcement, “We’ve found the Messiah!” and urged him, “Come and see.” Do you feel that sharing Jesus is complicated? Do you feel unready? Unprepared? Andrew’s invitation was simple and full of heart. There was no pressure, no argument. He radiated the pure joy of encountering someone who transforms lives. This is still how faith is shared today. It does not start with a heated debate or a clever argument—it begins through genuine relationships. When people notice the peace, the hope, and quiet joy that shape your life, they become curious about what makes the difference. Their curiosity opens a door for a simple, heartfelt invitation. You don’t need all the answers or perfect words. You just need to know Jesus. Sharing Jesus does not have to be complicated. It can start with the most natural impulse in the world—an invitation: “Come and see.” This is an open invitation—not just at Advent but year-round. Come and see the One who took your place. Come and see the One who forgives your guilt. Come and see the One who gives your life meaning, direction, and hope. And then—go and tell. When you’ve met the Savior, you’ve got something truly worth sharing. Prayer: Jesus, thank you for inviting me to come and see your grace. Fill me with joy and courage to share you with others. Amen.

Today, we're taking a break from some of the heavier stuff we've discussed recently and are reacting to some of the recent videos producer Bri has been saving up for such an occasion. Unfortunately, there are still fake babies, this time with Disney adults. And why is there a "trans" flag hanging on El Capitan in Yosemite?! But luckily, there are some happy things, too, like young kids sharing Jesus with Mickey Mouse and commanding bugs to leave the garden in the name of Jesus.
