“Just
Walk Across the Room!”
During this Easter season, we walk with the Risen Lord each
day. Our daily lives continue with the excitement of Easter
Sunday’s experience. Then, how do we proclaim the
Easter Joy?
In his book, Just Walk Across the Room, Bill Hybels brings
a personal experience of evangelism into the twenty-first
century with a natural and empowering approach modeled after
Jesus himself. When Christ “walked” clear across
the cosmos more than 2,000 years ago, he had no formulas
and no memorized script; rather, he came armed only with
an offer of redemption for people like us, many of whom were
neck-deep in pain of their own making.
During the month of May, we will learn how to walk across
the room as Jesus did through the preaching and mid-week
studies of Bill Hybels’ “Just Walk Across the
Room.”
In this curriculum, Hybels asks us “What might unfold
in Christendom if Christ-followers like us would agree to
take walks to see what God might do in our spheres of influence?” He
encourages us that every one of us can be an evangelist if
we are willing to walk across the room for Christ’s
sake.
We as Christ’s body do our best to practice our discipleship.
Christ wants us to spread his gospel to the end of the earth.
We need to begin from somewhere to carry out this mission.
I am very excited for this preaching-study series of Just
Walk Across the Room because we will learn how to begin the
evangelism. Evangelism is not just for the pastors and/or
leaders of the church. It is for every one of us. We will
learn how easy this task is as we learn from this curriculum.
I invite everyone to this meaningful study. I will preach
on Just Walk Across the Room for four Sundays starting on
April 27th and each of the preaching will be followed by
the study sessions on Wednesday in the morning and evening.
With an excitement,
Heasun Kim, Pastor
