Is God calling you to preach? Is God calling you to teach? Is God calling you to stand in the pulpits and behind lecterns and across the table of the coffee shop and in front of people in the living rooms of their homes, boldly proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ?
The Bible tells us that the whole world is enemy-occupied territory-and has been for thousands of years. What's needed today, just as in every era of history, are those who are willing to stand up with the sword of the Spirit and declare war on the serpent of Eden.
