Dear Friend:
I recently had the privilege of meeting with a group of enthusiastic young pastors, passionate about their calling and brimming with questions. During our conversation, one pastor asked, “How can I inspire my congregation in a world where people are more focused on their mobile phones than on Scripture?” I welcomed his question. The answer? Stick to the Word.
Avoid chasing trends or crafting clever self-help messages cloaked in religious language. Don’t try to compete with the entertainment industry... it’s not a battle worth winning. Simply open your Bible. Teach about who God is, allowing the sacred text to speak. When you do, you’ll always find an audience.
God's Word is inexhaustible, and His character is truly awe-inspiring—there is simply no one like Him.
You may not be aware that Insight for Living reaches numerous pastors, training and resourcing their ministries. Impacting pastors and leaders indirectly shapes entire congregations, fostering ripples that transform families and future generations. This is essential, and it’s the foundation for a lasting legacy.
As the 30th of June approaches, I invite you to invest in the next generation. Your contribution will assist not just one person but countless individuals for eternity. Let’s work together—the message of the cross is worth every penny.
Your partner in ministry,
Pastor Charles R. Swindoll
