An invitation to join in reaching the world for Christ

mikeandsus

Today, we are sharing a well-done video, produced by Campus Crusade, to encourage people to consider using their business skills in full-time ministry. If you know someone, perhaps a college student, who is considering Christian work, please pass this link along to them. Or, you might just enjoy this three-minute video for yourself. Since we work in an administrative role in ministry, we liked the way this video helps show the many ways we can reach people around the world with God’s good news by what we do at headquarters.

Meeting Needs

mikeandsus

Maybe handing a tract to someone is not your idea of loving the nonbeliever, but handing them a box of groceries would be your best expression of God’s love to them. I ran across a number of different Christian websites today letting you know how you can volunteer your time and reach people for Christ. I am listing them specifically on the Sower’s Tools and Tips blog and will add to them when I find more. REMINDER: I also highly recommend a very good article by Tim Chester in The Sower’s online newspaper. Tim encourages us to reach out to … Continue reading Meeting Needs

Since the excellent video on the Parable of The Sower, featured in the last post, is only on the web temporarily, I am posting some thoughts I gleaned from this 80-year-old wheat farmer. Jesus explains the seeds and the meaning behind the birds, the footpath, and the other parallels in His parable. Mr. Dement’s knowledge of wheat farming adds to our understanding of the parable.

Modern Parables

mikeandsus

A friend directed me to Bible study videos of Jesus’ parables. The videos and extra materials are available to purchase on disc or as downloads. Modern Parables is allowing us to view all six of their films in their entirety for a limited time. I particularly liked The Widow and the Judge and The Sower. I enjoyed the others, too. For more thoughts about The Sower video, go to the post at the main Sower site. These videos could be used for evangelistic purposes and are of high quality. In fact, I sent the link to Modern Parables to a … Continue reading Modern Parables

The Sower: Explained by a Farmer

mikeandsus

With the start of a new year, and a less hectic schedule before me, I plan to return to posting every ten days or so. Thank you for your patience! A friend directed me to a great video which explains the parable of the Sower. The film follows an 80-year-old wheat farmer who explains about growing wheat and how weeds, poor soil, and other factors Jesus mentions in his parable will affect wheat plants. This complete video is only available for a limited time, so you may want to watch it ASAP. I posted my thoughts after viewing the video … Continue reading The Sower: Explained by a Farmer
