Share The Good News // Masashi Shibuya

God has called us to "go and tell the good news," but what does that look like in our daily lives? In this message, you’ll learn practical ways to become a "shepherd" in your school, workplace, or neighborhood.

SHARE GOOD NEWS: KNOW GOD’S HEART TOWARD PEOPLE

Mark 16:15 ERV

He said to them, “Go everywhere in the world. Tell the Good News to everyone.”

Luke 15:3-7 ERV

Then Jesus told them this story: (4) “Suppose one of you has 100 sheep, but one of them gets lost. What will you do? You will leave the other 99 sheep there in the field and go out and look for the lost sheep. You will continue to search for it until you find it. (5) And when you find it, you will be very happy. You will carry it (6) home, go to your friends and neighbors and say to them, ‘Be happy with me because I found my lost sheep!’ (7) In the same way, I tell you, heaven is a happy place when one sinner decides to change. There is more joy for that one sinner than for 99 good people who don’t need to change.

THE HEART OF A SHEPHERD

SINNER = ALL PEOPLE

 

THERE IS JOY

1 Timothy 2:4 ERV

God wants everyone to be saved and to fully understand the truth.

“WHEN GOOD NEWS IS SHARED, SOME PEOPLE WON’T BELIEVE, BUT SOME WILL.”

~ PS DARRYN SCHESKE

SHARING GOOD NEWS IS NOT A ONE-TIME EVENT — IT’S A LIFESTYLE.

YOU ARE CALLED TO BE A SHEPHERD WHERE YOU ARE

John 15:16 NLT 

You didn’t choose me. I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce lasting fruit.

SERVING PEOPLE IS THE BEGINNING OF SHARING GOOD NEWS

PRAY FOR THE RIGHT TIME AND OPPORTUNITY

Colossians 4:3a ERV

Also pray for us. Pray that God will give us an opportunity to tell people his message...
