The second part of my conversation with a Jehova's Witness friend and the crux of the whole issue: is Jesus God?

A contagious faith begins with a critical, initial contact.

A truly contagious faith is spread in a truly peculiar way. How could such a treasure spread in such a strange, unthinkable way?

The question at the heart of every evangelistic effort, "how can we see a great move of God here?"

A contagious faith, and therefore the beginning faith epidemic, begins with one, single, simple conviction.

Stepping into a new season together, what happens when you combine an all-powerful God, a Holy Spirit that sets people free and a group of people who live out of an abundance of love and faith in God?

We call that a faith epidemic - a contagious faith.

Luke 15
Why was Jesus hanging out with the very lowest of society? Because of the promise of the Father's joy. And we have been invited into that very joy.
