Jesus All About Life is about to hit our screens!
Last week, Neil asked us to do three things:
• Pray for wisdom and praise God for what he is doing
• Ask the people we know, have they seen the ads on TV and what do they think of them
• Be prepared with copies of The Essential Jesus to give to people, and be prepared to read this with them or to have a conversation about Jesus with them
Here is what Daniel Willis, the CEO of the Bible Society had to say this week:
The last 2 weeks have been a whirlwind of media opportunities to discuss the JAAL Campaign.
If the interest that has been shown by journalists and radio announcers is anything to go by we will all be flooded by many opportunities to say something in our local community throughout the campaign.
Of course there were many detractors who have wanted to have their say. This is precisely what we’re about – providing the opportunity to graciously talk about the relevance of Jesus to our every day lives.
The campaign starts next Monday and I want to encourage you to be in constant prayer as the day approaches. We’re involved in a major attack on the very heartland of “the ruler of the kingdom of the air” (Eph 2:2) but “the One who is in us is greater than the one who is in the world” (1 John 4:4).
This has been an amazing journey as we’ve prepared for these next 8 weeks.
Thank you for all you have done.
Thank you for your encouragement, your prayers, your preparation, your financial commitment and your trust as we’ve travelled this road together.
This morning the team at Bible Society spent time praying together for these next weeks. We are expecting God to work mightily across our country and we’re expecting to continue seeing results for many years to come.
What a joy to see the name of Jesus proclaimed so boldly and widely and what an amazing opportunity to start talking to people everywhere about our Lord.
May He be glorified and may Australia see and know that Jesus is King of Kings and Lord of lords.
Grace & Peace
Let’s keep praying for the people we know, let’s keep connecting with people and let’s take copies of The Essential Jesus, prepared to give them away and to talk with our friends about Jesus.
I have my copies ready to give to my neighbours, family members and the people I go running with on Monday nights, who are not followers of Jesus
