Can you describe the entire history of the Old Testament in 12 words? In previous posts, we looked at the first nine, so it's time to learn the last three and then review all of them.

See if you can pick up all 12 words in the midst of some toddler chaos ;-)

Iran. Israel. The United States. Airstrikes. Casualties. Escalation.

Every headline is about death.

But we cannot forget that every person who dies in this conflict—regardless of which side they're on—is an eternal soul with an eternal destination.

Soldiers. Civilians. Leaders. Enemies. Friends.

Every single one will stand before God.

And that reality should shake us awake.

Despite your opinions about the war—and we all have them—this is an opportunity for the gospel. Not because we're using tragedy. But because people are already asking questions about life and death.

When someone brings up the war, don't just share your political opinion. Instead, say, "I have been thinking about where all of these people go after they die. What do you think?"

Then listen.

When you have the opportunity, share hope.

Every soul matters. Every conversation matters.

God uses awful times like these to draw people to Himself.

You are missing a great evangelism opportunity if you don't ever do this:

Let's talk about your neighbor—the one who thinks Christians are pushy. You know who we’re talking about. We all have someone like this in our lives. And if you're like most Christians, the thought of sharing the Gospel with them makes you break into a cold sweat. But you have a perfect evangeli...
