Sharing the Gospel

Mr. Watson tells his wife, “I think we should invite the Johnson family over for dinner this week.” “Really?” Mrs. Watson replies. “They have 6 children and that would really stretch our food budget thin.” “I know,” said Mr. Watson, “but I have been thinking about how important it is that we try to get to know them in order to share the gospel with them. If we can stretch our budget in order to share Christ, isn’t it worth it?” Mrs. Watson thinks about what her husband says and knows she can’t disagree with sharing the gospel, but she is really worried about feeding a family of 8 and being setback with their food for the rest of the week.

What are Mrs. Watson’s challenges?

*What truths can she remember from Scripture to help her with her challenges?

*What may she practically do in the future to prepare for hospitality whether it is planned or unexpectedly?
