The good news of Jesus brings hope to those who are lost, light to those in darkness, joy to those in despair.  It offers real transformation to the person who is caught in addiction, disillusioned by materialism or seeking purpose and direction. We share the Gospel, because we have experienced the truth and power for ourselves, and we know, personally, the “Author and Perfecter,” so we have confidence in the Gospel’s transformative power on others.

This Christmastime and beyond, let us follow the example set by the angels and shepherds.  Let us use every opportunity and every means possible to spread the word about who Jesus is while showing people where they can find Him, so that they too can have a saving, personal relationship with the living Christ.  It’s not just good news–it’s the best news. LET’S SHARE IT.  General Brian Peddle, Salvation Army
