Sermon Questions
- How does today’s passage emphasize the importance of verbal communication and personal interaction when sharing the gospel?
- What does it mean for our feet to be considered “beautiful” in the context of sharing the good news? What are the responsibilities and privileges of being messengers of the good news?
- What are some practical ways we can embody the concept of “beautiful feet” in our daily lives?
- How can we make the balance between proclaiming the gospel with words and living it out through our actions? How does the concept of sharing the good news go beyond individual salvation and impact the growth and transformation of communities and societies?
