Principle:
Most people who are not Christians are not going to cross over to the Christian side of the street and come to us.
Reflection
If we expect people to come to us in order to hear the message of Jesus then we aren’t going to be very effective at spreading Jesus’ message. Why would we expect those we are trying to reach to do all the work and come to us?
Jesus never did ministry that way. Jesus did not camp out in one place and make everyone travel to him. Jesus traveled to where the people were. That’s what Jesus was doing when he went to Jericho. Jesus went to where Zacchaeus was. That is what we should do. We should go where the people are who we need to reach.
Where would you find yourself going if you went where people were in need of Jesus’ message?
