A Different Kind of Black Friday Message

The predominant message for Black Friday seems to be "Get out and shop!"  In whatever you're doing today -- working, relaxing, or yes, even shopping -- may these words challenge you to "Get out and make a difference for Christ!" 


We need to be involved with the world around us, because we live as Christians with a worldview which is in conflict with the worldview of the society we live in.  We should be constantly, winsomely, lovingly pushing Christian truth into the public square.   - Chuck Colson


When He saw the throngs, He was moved with pity and sympathy for them, because they were bewildered (harassed and distressed and dejected and helpless), like sheep without a shepherd.  Then He said to His disciples, The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few.  So pray to the Lord of the harvest to force out and thrust laborers into His harvest.  -  Matthew 9:36-38 (Amplified)
