God gave us the mandate of spreading his Word when he placed us on earth. It is our duty as Christians to ensure that we let other people know about the word. Churches have always been conducting outreaches as ways of reaching out to people. There are many types of outreaches, and so we will discuss church outreach and its types.
Every church needs to have an outreach program. It is impossible for a church to perform all the types of outreaches available in the world. God in his wisdom blessed us with unique gifts to do well in certain ministries. We can broadly categorize the outreaches to optional and essential ministries.
There are some outreaches every ministry ought to perform; they are the essential ones. On the other hand, there are those that the Word of God states that should be carried out. One of them is direct evangelism. The Bible says that all church members have to take part in telling their colleagues and other people about Christ.
World missions are also important. Apart from just telling your friends and other people about the ministry, you out to reach out further. In the scriptures, it is stated that every church has been called to reach out beyond their local communities so as to make disciples of all nations.
The poor and the needy also ought to be reached out to and told about the Word. When Jesus was telling his disciples about the kingdom of God, He told them about helping the least of their brothers. He told that some people will not be able to enter heaven because they did not clothe the needy, give them food or even shelter. This means that even the least in the society ought to know about God through you.
Children also ought to know about the word of God. In the Bible, Jesus told his disciples to allow the children come to him because they belong to the kingdom of God. Nowadays, most children are left by their parents without being attended to and so the enemy grabs them in their early stages and destroys their life. So we need to minister to children since they are delicate.
The outreaches mentioned above are essential. Out of them, other ministries have been born including prison ministry. People in prison ought to know that God loves and cares for them. They need to feel the love of God, and his forgiveness since God forgives sin. The disabled and people in the military should also get to know about Jesus. The love of God is abundant, and his mercies never fail us, this is what we ought to preach.
The young people and youth are also vulnerable. They are easy to fall into traps the enemy has set for them. We have to be at the forefront in preventing them from happening through preaching to them. In conclusion, each and every one of us should receive Jesus in our lives in order to tell other about him. It is our mandate, and so we have no excuse.
