Chuck Swindoll is one of my favorite pastors & teachers & authors. He is the Senior Pastor @ Stonebriar Community Church in Frisco, Texas, USA, but most of you probably know him best from his "Insight For Living" radio broadcasts &/or from the 70 books that he has authored.
Recently, Chuck posted a blog in which he wrote about how relieved he was the day that God told him that he was not responsible for how others responded to the gospel message.
God also told him, however, that he indeed was responsible for giving the gospel message to others, & that he needed to show the gospel to others by living it out daily.
He was responsible for giving it & living it.
Swindoll continued on in his blog post to say that a godly life is the most effective tool that we have for evangelism.
Sometimes we forget this very basic point, even as we work away diligently in our churches & ministries.
Sometimes we get so caught up in the machinations of church & ministry that we forget how effective a testimony it is to others when we simply live & show a godly life to others.
Give it & live it.
Are you doing it?
