Anthem: Grace in Your StorySample

Grace for all

After we’ve received grace, it changes how we see others.

Instead of seeing people as enemies, we can see them as people in need of grace. Instead of demanding perfection from those around us, we can love them through their failures and imperfections. Instead of thinking we’re better than others, we can realize the only difference between us and them is God’s grace.

We can’t stay silent about God’s grace.

We are surrounded by people who are searching for love, hope, joy, and peace in everything except for Jesus.

Charles Spurgeon, known as “the Prince of Preachers” once said, “The Great Physician [God] has entrusted you with the medicine that heals the sick. You see them die around you, but you never speak of the remedy!”

The truth is, the world around us is dying without Jesus. Since we’ve been reconciled to God through Jesus, we know where salvation is found. God has given us the message of salvation and we get to tell others.

“All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation” (2 Corinthians 5:18).

The Gospel is the best news anyone will ever hear. It’s God’s message to the world and He’s entrusted it to us, His children.

Your co-worker needs to hear this message.

Your neighbor needs to hear this message.

Your classmate needs to hear this message.

Your family needs to hear this message.

Everyone needs to hear this message.

Start by sharing your story of grace. How did you go from being lost to found? Talking about your faith in Jesus can be scary. But it's worth it. Jesus endured insults, mocking, criticism, rejection, and more, on our behalf. Are you willing to endure the same for Him?

Ask God to give you boldness. Ask Him to help you see people and listen to their stories. Sharing your faith is about listening and loving like Jesus rather than saying all of the right things.

Most people don’t know Jesus because no one has ever shown them or told them about God’s grace. Today is the day all of that could change.

Next Steps

We each have a story.

A story of how we've been touched by the grace of God. The world needs to hear our stories. That's why over the next three years, Pulse Evangelism is going into the world to capture thousands of stories of grace.

People need to hear the message that’s changed us—God's grace is for everyone. No one is left out. No one is too far gone. Anyone who's lost can become found. Grace is the only way home.

We want you to be part of this global movement.
