LOUISVILLE, Ky. (KT) – More than 100 Kentucky Baptist pastors have committed to sharing from John 3:16 on Sunday during the 3:16 on 3/16 initiative of the North American Mission Board.
John 3:16 is one of the most well-known Bible verses and encapsulates the very essence of the gospel: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”
Abram Crozier, the pastor of Trinity Southern Baptist Church in Falmouth, said his congregation will be putting John 3:16 in action with a Serve Sunday, an annual event for them. Church members will gather at 11 a.m. Sunday and after a short devotional on the famous passage, go out into the community collecting trash and knocking on doors to invite neighbors to church with the hope of sharing the gospel.
Crozier said there will be about 300 churchgoers participating. “We provide the trash-grabbers and gloves and divide and conquer,” he said. “Usually, the whole church shows up. We’re hoping the rain clears out in the morning and we will have a good day.”…
