The Hook
One of the illustrations that Jesus uses in describing the task of evangelism is fishing. Just think about the way Jesus called Peter and Andrew to be His disciples?
"While walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon (who is called Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. And he said to them, 'Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.' Immediately they left their nets and followed him." (Matthew 4:18-20, ESV)
As believers in Jesus, our Lord has called every one of us to "Go ... and make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19a, ESV), and like Peter and Andrew, we too are "fishers of men." But, what bait and hook are we to use as we go fishing? On today's Footsteps, TWR's Candace Mackie describes how church planters in Thailand will be using TWR Motion's new animated video series called Journey to Hope as a social media "hook" to initially connect with "disillusioned" Buddhists.
I encourage you to listen to today's episode, click on the link below to learn more about this project, and then pray for the TWR Motion team as they create this new evangelistic tool.
