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?

It is a negative trend, and Christians need to change because how will we be able to fulfill the great commission if we live such life. Churches can also tap the potential of the internet and preach the gospel to a wider reach of people. In the olden days, Christ would teach in the open air where he met people, and he was able to preach without any problem.

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.

The work we were left with on earth before the second coming of Christ was to preach the gospel to all areas. It is the desire of our Father in heaven that more people give their lives and follow his ways. The society have decayed because the church has gone into prosperity gospel forgetting that their mission is to serve the interest of God.

With the statement, the labors are few but the harvest is plenty Christ meant that there is still more that needs to be done to reach all corners of the world with the gospel.

The Bible teaches that those that will emulate the example of Jesus will get bigger crowns when the time of inheriting the kingdom. We have the potential to succeed in outreach ministry because we have the holy spirit that guides us each day. Some individuals in the Christian faith think it is the work of the pastors and the ministers to preach. But little did they know that the walk to heaven is a shared responsibility and outreach are the best way we can reach everyone near us.
