@JohnCarpenter64@micahfries Actually, there is the gift or work of the evangelist which is more of a proclaimer/teacher role. The call to evangelize or share the good news is a command and a theme throughout scripture. We are to be witnesses, reconcilers, and to do good works.
The more I’ve spent time with God in prayer, the less I ask for things. Our job is not to tell God how to do His job better, something I found myself doing often. It’s to listen to what God wants to do in and through our lives.
I once was concerned about the subtle but sinister influence of secularism pervading our society. Now I am mortified by the invasion of secularism in every area of our lives.

Christian, focus on & act like Jesus.
Muslim extremist groups Hamas and Palestine launch missiles into Israel weekly and have taken Jewish land and fought God’s people for years. Israel retaliating is called Terrorism? Come on! #StandWithIsreal
@BuschBeer Very much so! He loves his humans and is loved by us. Very well behaved, most of the time. 😁
He would be perfect to represent Busch’s for the pet brew.
@BuschBeer This is Bear! He has his own Ig page. It is @bear.the_golden.
He is super talented, dresses well, and loves to sniff out little morsels that hit the floor when someone is eating. He just sits and stairs at the ground til we “accidentally” drop a piece and then pounces.
