Pastor Nathan Gagne talks about God's redemption of our lives through His sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. Because of this sacrifice, we have been forgiven and have no need to fear God's punishment. So although Jesus died, in doing so He not only took our sins but defeated death when He rose again.
Care About an Empty Chair
The empty chairs within the two services signify one more person who could hear the good news of Jesus. It is important to make sure there is room to invite people, but we should not take this as an opportunity to get comfortable. We should always take stock of those empty chairs and continue to share our testimonies to try to fill them.
Harvest
In this stand alone message, Pastor Nathan Gagne shares John 4:35 & gives 3 accompanying biblical examples of those who were ready for the harvest when God sent His appointed people to them. As opposed to meditating over what you perceive as failures regarding sharing your testimony or inviting others to explore Jesus, don't be discouraged & keep moving on to invite others. As John 4:35 says, the fields are ready for harvest; chances are, there are many others who would be open to exploring Jesus.
