The New Evangelization calls each of us to spread the Good News in ways that it has never been done before. We have to understand that we have a part as well - we are to take the message to all people.
We need to be willing to go out of our way to bring the message. We need to be willing to give ample opportunities to respond to the message. And we need to understand and communicate that there are consequences for rejecting the message, because the message of repentance and faith in Christ is still relevant today.
So here’s the question: who do you know right now, in your immediate sphere of influence that you can be praying for?
Someone who you can either tell about Jesus yourself, or give a tastefully done tract to, or invite to Church, or whatever.
Someone who needs to hear the message maybe one more time.
So who are you thinking of? Commit to praying for them. This summer is a great time to be inviting people to Church, especially this Sunday.
So if nothing else, be praying that God will help you invite someone and that they will accept the invitation. I promise they’ll hear the Good News.
