Come and See
I love donuts. Always have- I don’t eat as many as I used to- last week had a bad donut day-
I remember the first time I had a Krispy Kreme donut- changed my life- that hot light no joke
Told my grandpa about it- French pastry chef- poo-pooed about it- took him- 7 and he believed
It was something that I loved- that I knew that someone else loved- so I shared it with him
Have you ever seen something cool and wanted to share it with someone? A rainbow, a sunset, a funny video? Gone to a great restaurant? “you got to see this video, movie” hear this song
You need to have the same commitment when It comes to sharing Jesus
Psalm 66:5 Come and see the works of God; He is awesome in His doing toward the sons of men.
On October 31- we are having an invite Sunday- and today that’s what we’re talking about-
I want you to come away from this message with a commitment to invite one person- not even get one person to come- just invite one person- if we can get a handful of visitors- it will be great- make a commitment- be about that invite life.
From Research- there’s one specific reason that visitors come to church?
The friendship factor. They asked more than 50,000 people over the last 10 years why they came to church, and between 75 and 90 percent of respondents say, “I began attending because someone invited me.”
Only 2% of church people invite an unchurched person (Thom Ranier, 2003)
One study found 37% of Christians linked their conversion to being invited to church
(Unbinding the Gospel) showed 40% who joined first came because a friend invited.
Don’t invite people that have another church- not the plan- unchurched- non-Christians
