A Challenge to Each Christian… This lesson’s purpose: To encourage all Christians to reach out to others with the gospel. All of us need a “gentle push” in this area. We want to reach out but are hesitant. Underlying the common effort is the need for individual Christians to be motivated by an evangelistic outlook in DAILY life.
