Witness | John Magnus
In this inspiring episode, John Magnus joins us to explore the vital role of witnessing in our faith journey and the mission of Southwest Church. Rooted in Acts 1:8, John reminds us that every believer is called to be a witness—not necessarily an evangelist with special training, but someone who shares what they have seen, heard, and experienced of God’s power in their lives.
From the everyday miracles we witness to the transformative stories of grace over grief, addiction, loneliness, and suffering, John encourages us to boldly and humbly testify to God’s work around us. Drawing on biblical examples like Paul’s testimony before King Agrippa and personal stories of faith in challenging circumstances, this message challenges us to overcome fear, reluctance, and apathy in sharing our faith.
Whether you have a dramatic conversion story or simply live a life marked by God’s grace, your witness matters. John offers practical encouragement and a simple framework to share your faith story effectively, inviting you to embrace the mission of disciple-making right where you are.
Key Scriptures:
- Acts 1:8 — The call to be witnesses
- Acts 26 — Paul’s testimony before King Agrippa
Reflect & Act:
- How can you share your unique story of God’s work in your life?
- Who in your daily circle might God be calling you to witness to?
- Join us in prayer for boldness and humility as we live as witnesses for Christ.
Tune in and be encouraged to take your place in the great story God is writing through Southwest Church and beyond!
