info_outline The Reward of Soul WinningWhat We're Reading
When we win souls for Christ it pleases our Lord. That is the greatest reward! Even when the attempts fall short of a soul saved, we stand with Jesus who, himself, was rejected. Let us seek to win souls!
info_outlineEric and Joel are back! They're talking shark attacks in Maine, a little about Todd White's recent sermon, but mostly about Spurgeon's book and this week's topic, the cost of winning souls for Christ.
Please note that in bringing up Todd White, we are NOT endorsing his ministry, or any other prosperity preacher's ministry, but we're hopeful that God is truly drawing Todd repentance, and to a humble view of the true Gospel of Jesus. Here's the sermon one we're referring to in the show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lK6_MNSqX2s
