Matthew 28:16-20
Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
Did you know that over 60,000 people must be converted to Christ every day to just keep even with the world’s growth? That’s 2500 plus every hour, 45 every minute - because 70 million get added to the world’s population every year.
Which brings us to the nitty-gritty of the situation. How many people did you invite to church last year?
In the last five years?
The last ten? In your lifetime?
I don’t mean how many deep theological discussions did you have. I don’t mean how many person to person Bible studies did you lead. I mean just a simple straightforward invitation, looking at someone, and in relation to YOUR Church said “Come on down.”
If the answer is few or none, has it made a difference as to how many are in church attendance this next Sunday morn?
If each member in your church would give one hour a month, that’s averaging 2 minutes a day, in extending a welcome to people to come to your church that would add up to a tremendous number of invitations.
And most likely a tremendous number of no’s - but also some yeses.
One thing is for sure…if you don’t ask you don’t get.
Let’s put it this way, if the Lord has given you solace in times of sorrow, strength in times of weakness, or guidance when you were confused; then are you not selfish if you do not share this power and this blessing with others?
It’s just a question, but perhaps a loaded question.

"The Spiritual Abraham Lincoln is an extremely well written book that investigates what might be termed the spiritual side of President Lincoln. It's both scholarly and very readable.
