Once we’ve put our trust in Jesus as our Savior, then what? What does God really want us to do? When each of us stands before God one day to give an account of our lives, will we have done what God asked of us, or will some of us be embarrassed?

God wants every one of us to be in relationship with him and others. It’s why God created marriage, family, friends, and church. Often these relationships can be the most difficult part of life, a broken marriage, a wayward son or daughter, a failed business partnership, an addicted spouse, a damaged friendship, a faithless father, a whacky mother, or a messed up sibling. Everything in life comes down to our relationships. God intends for us to be connected to each other and to have deep, healthy and meaningful relationships. Remember, “For where two or three gather as my followers, I am there among them” (Matthew 18:20).
For some people the idea of talking to others about matters of faith is outside of their comfort zone. They may live by the motto, “There are two things people should never talk about politics and religion.” But from God’s perspective if there’s one thing believer should talk about it’s what we believe. Jesus said, “Go make disciples of all nations.” But it’s hard to make disciples if we’re unwilling to talk to anyone about Jesus. We may not feel prepared or ready to share our faith, but there is something every believer can do—invite people to church.
