Celebrating growth

This year, our church has been focusing on seeing beyond the four walls of the church and sharing our faith with those around us. After the worship service on Sunday, a woman approached me to say that she had the opportunity to share her faith with three individuals and lead them to faith in Jesus Christ. She then apologized that they wouldn’t help our church grow because they were from out of town and would be returning to their homes. I responded, “But you are helping the kingdom of God grow, and that is what’s most important!”
