The Greatest Treasure

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.

 

What’s more valuable than worldly success? In Matthew 16:26, Jesus asked, “What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet [lose] their soul?” Well, we know, it’s Jesus that is the greatest treasure a person can attain. And that’s the heart behind what’s happening in Vienna, Virginia, where a local church trained 22 new believers to confidently share the Gospel. During one recent night where they went out to the community to share their faith, one of the teams met a man named Insu. At first, Insu said he hoped God would forgive him—but he wasn’t sure of his eternal future. That night, the team gently walked him through the Gospel, and Insu prayed to receive the gift of eternal life. By the end, he answered both diagnostic questions with joy and clarity! When Christians are equipped, they become bold and effective witnesses for Christ—anywhere, anytime. Want to get equipped? We’d love to help. For resources, visit our website at sharelife.today.
