The Power of an Invite – Part 2
In Part 1, we talked about how a simple invitation to church can open the door for someone to encounter Jesus. Today, let’s go a little deeper.

An Invite Extends Belonging Before Believing
Many people are longing for a place to belong, even before they fully believe. When you invite someone to church, you’re inviting them into community. You’re saying, “You don’t have to have it all figured out to sit with me.” Sometimes people need to experience love and acceptance before they can grasp the truth of the gospel.

An Invite Creates Eternal Impact
Think about the ripple effect . . . one invitation can lead to a decision for Christ that impacts marriages, families, and generations to come. The Bible says in Luke 15 that all of heaven rejoices when even one person comes home. Your invitation could be the spark that sets that heavenly celebration in motion.

An Invite Is Simple, But Not Small
It might feel like just a text, a conversation, or a quick ask, but in the hands of God, it’s so much more. An invite is a seed, and seeds carry the potential for an abundant harvest. Don’t underestimate what God can do with your step of faith.

Who’s Waiting on Your Invite?
As we step into this season—whether it’s At The Movies, Christmas, or any given weekend, let’s remember that there are people in our world who are just one ask away from a changed life. Who has God placed on your heart? Who do you see regularly at work, school, the gym, or in your neighborhood?

Take a moment, send that text, extend that invite. You never know the story that might begin with your simple “Would you like to come to church with me?”
