18Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
Matthew 28:18-20 (NIV)
This verse was inspired by a couple of movies I watched this weekend: Shredderman Rules and Kids in America. The first is a Nickelodeon movie, the second - an independent film. Both are about students rising up against tyranny and oppression. Both are about making a change. In both movies the protagonists must make a change in themselves, a decision to act, before they can work to make a change in other peoples' lives. In both cases the protagonists are pushed too far before they are willing to put themselves out there.
Both movies have a good message, but my question for you today is, "What does it take for you to change?" When you read today's passage, are you ready to go out now? Or are you waiting for someone to push you into it? What's your tipping point before you're ready to share the good news? If you're still waiting, what are you waiting for?
