The disciples encountered discouragement and fear after Jesus’ crucifixion, but His resurrection changed everything. Their sorrow was turned to joy, and they suddenly understood Jesus in a way they never did before.  Before His ascension, Jesus gives them a critical task. He tells them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age ..read more

1M ago
The word “missional” really started coming into its own in the last 20 years. For a while, everyone from churches to businesses to community centers were calling themselves missional. So what does it mean to be missional? The term communicates a person or organization’s desire to look beyond their own concerns to prioritize a larger purpose or goal. When someone refers to themselves as missional, they’re trying to communicate that they’re intentionally outward-focused.  For churches and parachurch organizations, it means that they want their energy expended to larger goals than growth or ..read more

3 Things to Remember When Sharing Your Faith with Loved Ones
Jesus Film Project Blog
by Jesus Film Project

When it comes to sharing our faith, context is everything. Sharing the gospel with someone we have never met and will likely never see again is vastly different than talking about Jesus to the people who know us best and see us regularly. When talking to friends and family about your faith, here are three helpful things to remember.  1. You’re in a marathon, not a sprint  The mission field within your family and circle of friends is unique. When you’re evangelizing in a foreign culture, you have a very brief window of time to communicate the gospel, but you also don’t have a long hi ..read more

80 of the Best Bible Memory Verses for Kids

The author of Psalm 119 tells God, “I have hidden Your word in my heart that I might not sin against you” (Psalm 119:11). Those words perfectly encapsulate the importance of Scripture memorization. As we internalize God’s word, the Spirit can put it to work for us at critical moments.  When Satan tempted Jesus in the wilderness, He responded by quoting passages from the book of Deuteronomy. The Spirit can do the same thing with the Scripture we memorize. As we commit Scripture to memory, the Spirit uses it to encourage us, help us ward off temptation, and transform how we see ourselves an ..read more

How to Talk about Your Faith Online So People Will Listen

When Jesus gave the Great Commission, the only way to spread the gospel was to physically go to places and speak to people. This is why we see Paul speaking in various synagogues and marketplaces (Acts 17:17). Early Christians had to be in the presence of others to communicate with them.  Mass communication became possible without the necessity of proximity through inventions like the printing press, telephone and radio. This impacted the ways Jesus’ message could be spread and shared. Thanks to the internet, today’s marketplace is the entire world, and we can communicate with people near ..read more
