Grace Without Margins: Chapter Thirteen

Sharing the Gospel

Sometimes we loose sight of what matters the most in ministry.  We can become so focused on the logistics of ministry that we forget the ultimate purpose and that is to introduce people to the love, grace and salvation of Christ's ultimate sacrifice.

• Do you have someone on your ministry team that is passionate about sharing the gospel to a variety of children with a variety of backgrounds and abilities?
• Do you properly value this aspect of the ministry?
• Are you providing him/her the resources needed?  
• Do you provide training and growth opportunities?
• Do you have a team of people committed to praying for evangelism opportunities?

It can be tempting to doubt you are making a difference in the lives of children that are non-verbal.  You may never know the outcome of your efforts until you get to heaven.  That is ok!  Trust God, trust the Holy Spirit, pray and be full of joy and anticipation.  One of the most amazing things about God is, you never know what He is up to.  We can trust, however, that He is always working in the hearts of the people we minister to as well as ourselves.
