As Jesus sat at the table of Zacchaeus, he, too, saw past the sinful nature. Instead, he saw a man in need. Put yourself in Zacchaeus' position, and then Jesus’.
So, should a leader give up leading and living like Jesus because others don’t like what is happening around them? The church needs leaders to speak up and step out of the comfortable to serve the uncomfortable.
Instead of fretting about how things are going, get going into becoming the person God has called you to be.
Each word takes on a powerful force of someone’s emotions, projecting them into the air or on the written page. Words cannot be unsaid or unsent. Words from a leader can either help or hurt.
Words unsaid or said too much could cost a leader a season in the ministry pit of despair. Words used correctly under the guidance of the Holy Spirit can enable a leader’s ministry to prosper.
The church must remain committed to winning the lost, and they do that by being Christ in all situations.
Winning the lost is more than just sharing the gospel with someone; it is walking alongside the lost, showing Christ love in the darkest moments of life.
The church has an opportunity to create a space where lonely or even busy people can find rest within her walls.
God has a beautiful design for your local church to reach the lost with the gospel message, but is your church prepared to do so?
