Why Proclaim? In Paul’s final prayer in Ephesians he asks twice for fearlessness in proclaiming the Gospel. Both knowing our own failings and worrying about other’s reactions can paralyze us with fear when we think proclaiming is selling people on something! But the Gospel is not Good advice we’re peddling, it’s Good News! In Jesus, God’s saving love has come to us! With Paul, may we pray to know the perfect love of God, both for us and our neighbor, that casts out fear!

In truth, our call to serve is not to benefit God, but to benefit us. When we respond to God’s invitation to see ourselves as heirs of his kingdom, we want to be part of what he’s doing in the world. God’s call to service draws us not only to bless each other, but also to find joy and peace in ourselves as well.
