Everyone Sharing the Gospel Everywhere // Gospel X - Multiplying the GospelSample
The first church is described as a united body of believers that came together daily. They ate together, shared their property, cared for each other, and praised God together. By living together as a community of believers, they were attractive to outsiders. God added daily to them because of their testimony of how they lived and behaved. They were a counter-cultural example of how people can live as a community. Their behaviour was their witness.
This is also true today. Behaviour is stronger than a thousand words. Believers of Jesus are called to live together as one body. This unity and community is attractive to people outside. People today are longing for real, authentic relationships and communities. They search for a place of belonging. This opens the chance to being a witness through your life as a community of believers. This can be the whole church. It can also be a part of the church. It is not about structure but life and relationships. It can also be the way how you live together with your family with an open door for friends, neighbours, and people in need. Family can here be your actual family, but it can also be your community where you decided to stick together like a family.
How do you live together as a community?
How do you live this unity?
Is this way of committed fellowship visible to others?
Why or why not?
Do you need to be more outspoken about it and open it so others can become a part of it?
In other words, you can be a witness right where you are, with the people that God put beside you. You can share the Kingdom life of God by living it out within your community and by letting others participate.

About this Plan
Jesus left the church the vision of a movement when he challenged us to reproduce from our own Jerusalem into “Judea, Samaria and the end of the earth.” (Acts 1:8). For us to see a movement, we need every Christ follower to adopt Jesus' personal mission to “seek and save the lost.” (Luke 19:10). Evangelism is core to the mission of Jesus and essential to accomplishing his vision. This plan is part of a 5-week journey on the topic of Gospel X - Multiply the gospel
