Do Our Lives Preach Jesus?

Many of us faithfully pray to God for the salvation of souls and spiritual revival in our country and the world. In this four-part podcast teaching on 2 Chronicles 7:14, this episode will focus on God's requirement of humble obedience to Him if we want Him to bring spiritual healing to our land. How we live preaches Jesus more loudly than verbally giving the gospel message or disseminating literature. People may not want to hear our spoken or written words, but they will examine our lives. Today's podcast will teach us how to rely upon the Holy Spirit to help us humbly submit our lives to Christ so that we can be a vessel through whom God can draw people. We will learn practical steps to let our everyday lives preach Jesus.
