The Risen Christ - Day 15

Jesus told the disciples to share the good news with people in Jerusalem (the city they were in), Judea and Samaria (the area all around), and the remotest parts of the earth (every place else).

Did he really expect them to go to distant places? For some disciples, the answer was yes, but others needed to start right where they were standing.

A Jew at that time probably encountered traveling foreigners and Roman soldiers stationed in the area, so sharing the gospel with the remotest parts of the earth could have been as simple as telling one soldier or one far east trader who then took the good news back home. The gospel spread like wildfire.

What if you shared the good news with one neighbor or coworker who then shared it with someone else? How would that change our city, region, or nation?
