Inviting a Friend to Meet Jesus
"Philip said to him, "Come and see.""John 1:46
Reflection
Philip did not argue or debate. He simply invited his friend to come and look. Sometimes inviting beats explaining.
Prayer
Jesus, give me courage to invite my friends. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
- What did Philip say to his friend?
- Why is inviting sometimes better than explaining?
- Who could you invite to church or a Bible activity?
5-minute activity
Make a simple invitation card for a friend to come to church, a kids' event or a family dinner with Bible reading. Decorate it together and deliver it. Read John 1:43-46.
