Hello Pastor Carlos,

Your reflection on Pastor Henry’s message was both powerful and comprehensive. You highlighted Matthew 28:19-20: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…,” along with Romans 10:14, Acts 1:8, and Mark 16:15, showing that evangelism is not optional but a divine mandate. Your examples of Philip with the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8:26-40 and Peter’s boldness in Acts 2 beautifully illustrate how Spirit-led obedience brings transformation to individuals and communities.

Another verse that reinforces this truth is 2 Timothy 4:2: “Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.” This verse reminds us that evangelism requires readiness at all times, not only when it is convenient. It emphasizes persistence, patience, and faithfulness in proclaiming the Gospel.

Practically, being ambassadors of Christ means embodying His love in both word and deed. Sharing personal testimonies, serving those in need, and engaging in intentional conversations are ways we reflect Christ’s truth. When evangelism becomes a lifestyle rather than an event, the church grows stronger and more effective in its mission. Platforms like Church Junction help believers encourage one another and extend the message of salvation beyond physical boundaries.

You asked, “What are some ways you’ve seen the Gospel transform lives in your ministry or community? And how can we, as a church body, continue to cultivate a culture of readiness to say, ‘Here am I. Send me’?” In my experience, I’ve seen the Gospel bring reconciliation in broken families and inspire believers to serve selflessly in their communities. Cultivating readiness begins with discipleship—teaching believers to see every moment as an opportunity for mission and encouraging them to respond to God’s call with obedience and humility.

To the fellowship: How can we better equip one another to share the Gospel boldly in everyday settings, such as workplaces, schools, and online spaces?

God Bless You, Pastor Sam
