[Discoveries] 11-16-08 Good news -- Mark 16:15

[Inspiration in Your Inbox]

/*He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the good news to 
all creation. -- Mark 16:15*/

There is a shortage of good news in our world.

Imagine what it would be like if you turned on the TV and instead of 
hearing about wars and disasters, about crime and political scandals, 
you heard a report that went like this: "The president has just 
announced that he is going to pay off everybody's debt. If you owe 
anybody anything, just send the bill to the president and he has agreed 
to pay it out of his own private funds."

Now that would be good news!

We bring good news into our world. That is our role.

Deep down, people know they are messed up. When a person finally feels 
safe enough to muster the courage to take an honest look at himself, he 
knows, immediately, that something is wrong. Most people cannot be 
bullied into this kind of honesty. Bullying doesn't work because people 
hide from bullies or retaliate.

But our job is to preach good news.

What is the good news? Jesus will fix everything that's wrong with you 
and with your world if you will let Him. Jesus is the Solution.

Be encouraged!
Dwight

What happens when you partner with Dwight Clough Ministries? Victims of 
violent crimes and survivors of abuse are finding peace, wholeness, the 
power to forgive and the strength to set boundaries. Those ensnared by 
addictions are finding freedom. Marriages are being restored. Families 
are strengthened. Christian brothers and sisters in restricted lands who 
face persecution are finding strength and encouragement. Young believers 
are learning how to walk with the Lord, and people are coming into the 
faith for the first time. None of this happens as a result of one 
person's efforts, but rather this is God's work as He blesses the 
sacrifice of many people including yourself. We partner with you, with 
other ministries, and, most significantly, with the Lord. That's how the 
supernatural happens.
