This message by Pastor Jim centers on the power of invitations to change lives. Using the Parable of the Great Banquet from Luke 14, he explains how God invites everyone to His celebration, but many make excuses—prioritizing possessions, careers, or relationships over their eternal relationship with God. Pastor Jim shares his personal story of how a neighbor’s invitation transformed his family after his parents’ divorce. He challenges the congregation to “invest and invite”—making small relational deposits in others’ lives that could lead to eternal returns, emphasizing that 82% of unchurched people would attend if personally invited by someone they know.
