Consider This:
- What does Jesus want from the disciples?
- What is their job?
- Do we have the same job?
- Are there other parts of the Bible that give us this assignment? see Matthew 28:19-20. This is God’s plan for salvation.
- What happens if we don’t do our job?
- Who will we disappoint?
- Can you find a way to witness?
Treasure Application:
- What is the connection between witnessing and loving others?
- When you accepted Christ as your savior, did anyone you know “discover joy” when they found out?
