“That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people stood on the shore. Then he told them many things in parables,” Matthew 12:1-3
Dear Jesus, You have such a passion that every single person has an opportunity to hear your word that you made adjustments to get the word to the crowd. I have recreated your moment by pushing out into a boat at a campground to teach 150 youth on shore. I see how it worked for you. It only makes me admire you more. Help me to make the same effort with your word for people around me. I want them to hear the word and understand it for their spiritual well-being. Give your churches men and women who will help their pastors use technology to advance the ministry of the word in ways that all people can receive it. Give all of us Christians a passion for sharing the good news in relevant and meaningful ways too. Help your people help the world to find you! Amen.
The word of God is too valuable to waste on shoddy presentations and static laden airwaves.
