I sometimes wonder why we, as pastors and church leaders, are so eager to keep people around us when Scripture commands us to go into the world and preach the Gospel.
Our responsibility is not merely to fill our churches with people, but to equip and send believers out to win souls for Christ.
Unfortunately, we can become more concerned about having a full church than having a growing Kingdom. We celebrate crowded seats, but sometimes forget that the Great Commission is about reaching those who are still outside.
Jesus did not call us to build our own kingdoms. He called us to advance the Kingdom of God.
A healthy church should not only gather people; it should equip, empower, and release them to take the Gospel beyond the four walls of the church.
We should not only ask, “How many people are in our church?” We should also ask, “How many people have gone out from our church and led others to Christ?”
Let us stop building churches that only gather and start building disciples who go.
We want the Kingdom of God to be full not merely our churches.
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations... Matthew 28:19
