Today, we completed the "3 Questions" series by asking another bold question. "How will you go further than ever before in spreading the gospel around the world?"
Acts 1:3-8 is an amazing passage. It's one of Jesus' last conversations with his disciples. They thought it was time for Jesus to reestablish the kingdom of Israel. They thought they were going to receive the power that comes along with being Jesus' inner circle.
They did, indeed receive power. But not the power they were expecting. Instead of getting power to pursue selfish goals, they received power to be eyewitnesses to the resurrection in Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.
It's the greatest story ever told. It's one that includes you and me. And it isn't finished yet. We modern-day disciples are still empowered by the Holy Spirit to be His witnesses in our local community, regionally, and around the world.
How will you go further than ever before in spreading the gospel?
