"So, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you not only the gospel of God, but also our own lives, because you had become dear to us."
1 Thessalonians 2:8
Our desire through Victory Call is to impart the gospel of God, to direct our eyes and hearts to the words and person of Jesus Christ.
"I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry."
If at the end of the day we have simply tickled your ears and made you feel good, we have wasted your time.
"See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil." We take seriously the ministry entrusted to us to speak (write) truth. Like Paul, we not only seek to impart the gospel, we also impart our own lives as many of our illustrations are borne out of our personal experiences. You have encouraged us greatly in this ministry and we appreciate your input, you have become dear to us. Thank you for joining us on this journey. June 1st will mark the 2nd anniversary of the inception of the Victory Call ministry.
