Fellow Workers for the Truth

We can be fellow workers for the truth, even in different places.

Today I am sad that I am not with you there at Gahanna-Jefferson, but I am glad to be working here at Fort Hill. Soon the campground will be full of staff, counselors, and campers. There will be a few familiar faces, but a lot of new ones as well. Regardless of where we are, we are all working for a common cause.

3 John 5-8: “Beloved, you do faithfully whatever you do for the brethren and for strangers, who have borne witness of your love before the church. If you send them forward on their journey in a manner worthy of God, you will do well, because they went forth for His name’s sake, taking nothing from the Gentiles. We therefore ought to receive such, that we may become fellow workers for the truth.”

Very soon the campers will begin to arrive, and it will be up to me and the workers here to demonstrate the love of God to them. Hopefully by the end of the week, they will have learned a lot about God and will want to learn even more. When it comes time for them to go home, we hope to send them on their journey in a manner worthy of God.

You can do the same at Gahanna-Jefferson! Welcome fellow members and visitors. Show them the love of God during your time of Bible study and worship together. When it is time to go home, send them on their journey in a manner worthy of God.

We may be in different places today, but we are “fellow workers for the truth.” Lord willing, I will see you next Sunday.
