What if we changed?

What if "each one tell one" was no longer the goal?
     What if we went viral?
          What if "each one told everyone?"

Wouldn't the Good News travel faster? 
     Wouldn't that be a good thing?

What if everyone heard the Good News?
     They could trust Jesus and call to Him for help.
          Doesn't their ability to do that depend on our willingness
              to tell what we know?

Romans 10:13-15 (The Message) says, "Everyone who calls, 'Help, God!' gets help." But how can people call for help if they don't know who to trust? And how can they know who to trust if they haven't heard of the One who can be trusted? And how can they hear if nobody tells them? And how is anyone going to tell them, unless someone is sent to do it?

Jesus sent His followers out to preach Good News.
     I'm assuming that directive is for us.
          What do you think?

It was a great service!!!!

It was an awesome weekend Dad! So great to be there with you and mom to celebrate Easter. I am keeping my glo-stick as a reminder.
Love you!

This service was such an encouragement to me. I love the thought that it is everyone's job to tell everyone. What if people listen? Now that's an exciting thought!

The glow sticks are brilliant! Wish i could have been there. I might have to steal...er, borrow this one!
