Their life depends on it! 1:02:08 no <p>If you want to share the gospel with someone, and you should want to share it with as many people as possible, then you have to find common ground with the person or people. Paul says when he is with the weak, he is weak; when he is with the Jews, he lives as a Jew; when he is with Gentiles, he lives as a Gentile. He isn’t saying to cross the line into sin with the people you are trying to reach, but he is saying, “Find some common ground.” The only way to do that is hang out with someone and get to know them, their likes and dislikes, and when you discover something you have in common, dive deep into that subject and find a way to work Jesus into the congregation! </p> gospel, good news, conversation, talk, common ground, weak, strong, compromise, commonality If you want to share the gospel with someone, and you should want to share it with as many people as possible, then you have to find common ground with the person or people.

In fact, as far as we know, he never even visited them! So how did they hear the gospel? How did a congregation start filled with Gentiles who love Jesus? More than likely it started with a man named Epaphras who was a coworker of Paul. He had learned from the best and at some point, he went on a mission himself preaching the gospel in Colosse and the Holy Spirit did a mighty work through him! We only have a few verses about Epaphras but what we do have shows us what a man of God he was and how he inspires us to be like him! </p> gospel, church, preach, hope, Colosse, good news, mission, missionary, work, inspire Did you know Paul didn’t start the church in Colosse?
