In this video message, Kevin Swanson explains that ignoring the lost can be an issue in family-integrated churches. This can stem from a lack of men preaching the Word. We need to be ready to preach the Word at all times and help our children to see the seriousness of sin and the need to preach the Gospel to an unsaved world.

2 Timothy 4:2 (NKJV) - "Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching."



Our Lord's last command is our first priority. In the church, in the family, in the city, to the ends of the earth. Join us in October for White Under Harvest. Family integrated churches sometimes ignore the lost, but hey, everybody sometimes ignores the lost. I think the problem is a matter of faith and courage to get the word out.

Now, typically people say we're supposed to extend the gospel into the public schools by sending our seven-year-olds down there to preach the Word of God in front of these classrooms. That's ridiculous. They don't have the opportunity to do so, they don't have the ability to do so, they're not prepared to do so, but God wants men to preach the Word of God in the public forum. Let's get the Word out there, let's preach it in the streets, let's call men and women to repentance. This is what Paul did, this is what Peter was doing.

We need to be doing the same thing. We go wherever we can go to get the word out. You
