Episode 238: An Unexpected Responsibility

Expecting the Unexpected: An Unexpected Responsibility

What if God gives you a purpose for which others have told you that you don’t qualify? “Build my kingdom on earth” is a pretty big responsibility. The shepherds were given the task of announcing the beginning of this new kingdom, and now it’s up to us to begin establishing it in our world. Will we listen to the voices telling us we don’t qualify for that job? Or, like the shepherds, will we believe we are exactly the one God is calling?


This week one of our #WholeLifeTakeAways asked: What makes it hard to believe this is “good news for all people”?


So, what about you? Is it hard to believe that this is ‘good news for all people’? Why or why not? We hope you’ll share your thoughts and ideas with us by using one of the following:
