In Episode 94, we talk about the benefits of giving invitations to receive Christ. Whether you’re a pastor or a leader of a small church group, it is important to discuss with your community about giving out invitations to receive Jesus Christ.

In the gospel, it says, “There is an invitation that is given to all mankind”. We have been taught to believe that the invitation must be “forced”. Or that we must not feel a calling to just simply invite someone to gospel teachings or our gospel meetings. If we're disciples of Jesus Christ, then this is something that we need to do. 

We’re entering into a new season of energetic power and new anointing. We've been given the Holy Spirit, so let's go out and compel them to come in. Let's invite them in and let's build God's house up.

Tune in now and let’s go bigger, better, and deeper!
