“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witness”
ACTS 1:8
Jesus tells us, “you will be my witnesses.” But what does it mean to be a witness for Christ?
Think of it like this: our amazing, all-powerful God has a plan to use you and your life to point others to Jesus! God wants us to join him to save the lost and renew all of creation.
What’s more, we are not alone. Jesus gave us the gift of the Holy Spirit and a call not only to us as individuals, but to us as a church. The work of mission is not just for a select few, but an important calling for all of us.
At Resonate Global Mission, your Christian Reformed mission agency, we walk with each congregation to discover what God has in store for us. Some of us are called overseas, and some of us are called across the street to love and serve our neighbors.
Wherever God calls us, we have an opportunity to share the love of Christ with the people God has placed in our lives—what a privilege! What step is God calling you to make next? Your most important partners on mission are all around you, and your mission field is just steps away.
What does it mean to be a witness for Christ? Join us during the month of September as we explore what it means to spread the gospel and shine a light for Jesus. Resonate Director Kevin DeRaaf wrote the devotions for Today’s September issue all about living out God’s mission in our lives. Sign up here.
