"Home" Missions

So that you and your son and your grandson might fear the Lord.” Deuteronomy 6:2
Jesus has issued the command that we go to the ends of the earth carrying the blessed Gospel of salvation. But He also issued the admonition that there are some nearer at hand to whom we must also bring the Good News. No one exits the womb as a Christian. We all come into this world as lost sinners. God has no grandchildren, but He does have children with grandchildren.
In many years in the ministry I have seen too many children raised in the church and having given a profession of faith, no longer giving either time or care to God. Those children now have children themselves, grandchildren of concerned and faithful believers. We don’t always have to find the lost somewhere across the globe; we can find them at our grandchildren’s house. Jesus warns us not to overlook the spiritual needs of the little children. We need to make sure our missionary effort does not ignore the little children who we can most influence for Christ.

Dear Father, Thank You for grandchildren and help us make sure they know You. Amen.
