Will You Carry the Baton? A Guest Post by Kathy Howard

Guest Post

Billy Graham spent his life taking the Gospel to the world. According to estimates, Graham preached in almost two hundred nations and territories. About 215 million attended his events. Two billion more heard Graham via radio and television. Most importantly, estimates of how many responded to his invitation to receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior exceed two million souls.

We can’t statistically measure the impact of the life and ministry of the apostle Paul. But both Scripture and history prove that the Holy Spirit used him to launch the Gospel like a rocket across the world. Not even the chains of his Roman imprisonment impeded his ministry. God simply brought the lost to Paul, including an early opportunity to preach to a big crowd of curious Jews.

Defusing the Depression Triggers

devotion

God has given believers His armor to wear as a defense against spiritual warfare. Satan doesn’t want God’s girls singing praises and full of joy. He decides to trigger that depression. He stalks us, and he knows exactly when and where to inject the poison.

What’s Preventing You From Taking That Leap of Faith?

Guide Dog Tales

“Jump, Iva, jump!” We all tried cheering my black Lab guide dog to jump across the curb into the car. She refused to step into the curb because hard rains had created a small creek running down the curb. Iva stood frozen, knowing she needed to get in the car, but afraid of the consequences.
I know Iva acts like a diva, but even this surprised me. My husband picked her up and put her in the car.
Is there something you don’t trust God about? Has He called you into something, but like Iva, you still refuse to take that leap of faith? Are you afraid of failure? Does fear keep you from taking that leap?
