"'Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.'"
Matthew 28:19-20
So here I am, fooling around at the house before my third day of seminary. And despite the massive headache and overwhelming-ness that is the first few days of any school, I've been trying to focus on my reasons for being at seminary. One of the main reasons is to be better equipped to follow Jesus' command from the end of Matthew. Obviously, all Christians are called to follow this command, but I am going to be making a career out of it.
I have trouble sharing the Gospel message with people I don't know. I have no problem talking about theology with my friends, family, and fellow students. Yet telling someone I don't know about the wonderful, amazing news of the Gospel seems extremely intimidating. How do I get over this roadblock? I'm hoping seminary, my tenacity, and lots of prayers will get me to a point of more easily following God's commands.
