The Plain

Jesus ministered in the PLAIN. What does that mean? Let me point it out by using each of the letters in the word:PLAIN.

• People

Jesus loved people, common, everyday people. His life was about others. He fed people. He healed people. He encouraged people. He taught people. He forgave people. He changed people forever.

• Lasting
  

His touch was a lasting touch. His work and influence has lasted for more than 2000 years.
What he does in your life and my life will be lasting too.

• Accepting

Jesus accepted people just like they were, with all their problems, worries, sins, and messed up lives. He still does the same today. I'm sure glad, or I would be out of the loop.

• Invitational

Jesus never beat anybody up. People wanted to be around Him. They wanted Him at their parties. They wanted to get near Him. Everything about Jesus was inviting, and it still is.

• New

Jesus makes everything new. People become new people when they run into Christ. He gives us a new start. He gives a new way of thinking. He gives us a new heart. New, new, new. Everything is all new since I became a Christian. The neatest thing is that He gave me a new start.

Jesus loves People in a Lasting way because He is Accepting and Invitational, making everything New. That's the PLAIN truth!
