True Ambition, Eternal Success

Romans 15:20-21

20 and thus I make it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, lest I build on someone else's foundation, 21 but as it is written,

“Those who have never been told of him will see,
and those who have never heard will understand.”

Today’s Truth

There is no greater honor than to take the gospel of forgiveness to the places where it has yet to be heard.

Discussion Questions

What is your primary ambition? What are you compromising to strive for this desire? Are you finding real joy in this ambition?
Paul's life was changed by the gospel of forgiveness. Has your life been impacted by the forgiveness we have in Jesus Christ? If yes, how so?
Where can you take the gospel in your everyday world? What is holding you back from sharing with the people around you?
