8.5 Let’s Personalize this Lesson…

Activity: Are you an explorer? Perhaps for you, the exploration you could take would be to go to
your neighbors and share the Gospel with them. Perhaps you could take a short trip to a village
not far from you and talk with the people there. There are hundreds of lost people around you
that need to hear of Christ’s love for them.

Romans 10:14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe
in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?

You might not be the pastor of a church, but you can be a missionary in your area. You can preach the amazing
story of Christ’s redemption to them. So what is your plan?
