Jesus Sends Out the Seventy-Two

After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to go. And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.

Go your way; behold, I am sending you out as lambs in the midst of wolves. Carry no moneybag, no knapsack, no sandals, and greet no one on the road.

Whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house!’ And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, it will return to you. And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for the laborer deserves his wages. Do not go from house to house.

Whenever you enter a town and they receive you, eat what is set before you. Heal the sick in it and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ But whenever you enter a town and they do not receive you, go into its streets and say, ‘Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near.’ I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom than for that town.

Woe to Unrepentant Cities“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. But it will be more bearable in the judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you. And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades.

“The one who hears you hears me, and the one who rejects you rejects me, and the one who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”

Luke 10:1-16 ESV Bible translation

Short encounters with greater impact

Sunday Service December 17

Sunday, December the 17th I am speaking on the topic of ‘short encounters with greater impact’ at ICF Rotterdam Noord.

Youth with a mission! YWAM

A message worthwhile to communicate!

This week I was with the SOKE* students of YWAM (youth with a mission).

Our topic was about communicating the message of Jesus to those outside of the Christian faith.

One of the students made the drawing you see in this post.

She expressed in this way part of the training which was about discovering God with our friends in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. 

It is easy to be with young people who are open to learning. Ten young people took the time to invest in their relationship with God and missions. It was inspiring to both have class sessions and a short mini-outreach at one of the campuses nearby.

We went to one campus and had good conversations about the meaning of life and God with many students. We even had some students who were willing to meet again and talk further.

Topics we talked about included

  • Why make the effort and speak about our faith with others?
  • How do we communicate in a way that is open, friendly, respectful, and clear?
  • Trusting God to use our small efforts to speak to people.
  • How to handle difficult questions and much more.
