Send us a text

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE EPISODE: Jesus gave us, His disciples, the assignment to spread the Good News of Salvation. But are we faithful to warn the spiritually lost that their eternal souls hang in the balance? Today, we will learn about our biblical role as spiritual watchmen for unsaved souls from the Book of Ezekiel. We will also be encouraged and challenged with four biblical reasons to be excited and steadfast in evangelizing during the natural rhythms of our day. Our foundational scripture for today's episode is Romans 10:14.
