Using Platform for Good

Can you make a list of everyone you know?

• Family, close and distant

• Church family

• Friends

• Neighbors

• Co-workers

• People you're in groups with

• Online friends

• Acquaintances

• Social media followers

For some, this number could total 5 or even 6 digits (maybe more).

A few weeks ago, some friends and I were talking about the wealthiest population, and I tried to imagine having billions of dollars. How could any one person need that amount of money? Think of all of the "good" one could do with that kind of wealth.

That discussion spilled over into how much "good" is accomplished when famous people use their platforms to promote causes or awareness. (I know it isn't always good, depending on our beliefs and worldviews).

And THEN, I started thinking about how many people I "know" (using the list above) and how large my platform is. It's not huge, but it's big enough that I realize "good" could result from utilizing it to share an important message.

There's no greater cause in this life than to share Jesus with others. I stumble with my words when I speak, but I found someone who doesn't: Franklin Graham. Please join me in sharing his message (which is also our message). It's just a minute long, but it's all anyone needs to hear in order to accept Jesus.

Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

Matthew 28:19-20 NKJV

Father, please take this message and spread it over the lands. May those who have ears-- hear, and those who have eyes-- see. Please use this message to save the unbelievers in our lives. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
