How You Can Change Your Locality Doing Church Outreach

By Tammie Caldwell


One of the responsibilities that Jesus left to his disciples is to go into the world and make new followers. The church doctrine requires that people go out and minister the gospel to others. It is, for this reason, that churches have a ministry that is responsible for reaching out to people who do not know the faith. What is church outreach and its impact to a society?

You will realize the reason Christ dies for men is so that they could have eternal life. In the Bible, it is quoted commissioning the disciples to go into the world and preach the word to the ends of the world. Failure to which he will not come because it would unfair to judge people of their sins yet they had not heard the gospel of salvation.

With the internet, we can reach millions to even to areas that would traditionally become inaccessible. We also need to realize that there are areas that are still hostile to the word of God and the only way is through live streaming and also putting our sermons on blog posts.

Soul winning is not a favor that we are doing to the kingdom of God. But is it a responsibility and a command that each Christian should personalize in their context. You can preach at work as well as you can also preach by writing Christian blog posts. Others can preach by physically going to the areas that are not reached and sharing with them the love of Christ.

From that point, you can now preach to these people. Outreach is the backbone of every church some of the fastest growing prayer centers have mastered the art of making the churches a family. When there is love in the church people would want to spend more time there. Most family establishments lack the direction, and it has made the society decay.

It is a habit that is making some Christians to live in their confines, and they tend to believe that way they will have achieved their mission. If you see the life that Christ used to live you will see that he walked and dinner with people that others thought were outcast in the society.

Jesus says in the bible that he is the truth, way and life and that if any person wishes to go to the father it must be through him. That means that pastors should begin to preach the true gospel of the father, son and holy spirit. Some pastors are in the habit of preaching money and other life issues forgetting that they are called into the ministry as servants of God.

It is imperative that children of God be evangelistic in their way of life and their actions. The harvest is plenty, but the laborers are few. The lost souls want the message and a person who will go and minister to them. It is the responsibility of every Christian to ensure that the people who are close to them know the good news of Christ Jesus.
