Who is Clark T. Randt, Jr.? Appointed by President Bush in 2001, Mr. Randt is the longest serving U.S. ambassador to the People's Republic of China! Good trivia to know in case you're a contestant on Jeopardy!
So, what is an ambassador? An ambassador is someone who represents the highest authority there is, in a specific place. Mr. Randt represents President Bush for the United States, in the country of China. Impressive stuff! What's even more impressive is that YOU are an ambassador!
Paul puts it this way: "We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us…." 2 Corinthians 5:20 (NIV).
You have been assigned by the highest authority in the universe (Jesus) to represent Him in a specific place. God wants you to impact your world with His message. It is our job to represent Jesus to lost people - where we work, where we go to school, in our neighborhood, where we exercise, and in the activities we're involved in.
God makes it clear that He has assigned you, as His unique messenger to the lost people in your world. Perhaps like many believers, you think you're off the hook, that some professional pastor or ministry worker will represent Jesus to lost people you know. Maybe you don't know how to be an effective ambassador. Or if you're real honest, maybe you don't even want to. God's word makes it clear: You are Christ's ambassador! It is our privilege as Christ's followers to share His message with the lost people we know.
Hutchcraft Ministries is committed to motivating and equipping you to effectively communicate Christ to lost people in your world. Hutchcraft Ministries can provide both the "want to," and the "how to" for effective rescue in today's spiritually hard-to-reach culture.
