How does the gospel reach us where we are? Three things we see when we look at three very different conversions in rapid succession. The gospel’s reach is…

The gospel’s reach is ordinary (vv. 11-15)

Where am I most prone to discount the ordinary reach of the gospel in my own life?

How should the ordinary reach of the gospel change my approach to the people God has placed in my life?

The gospel’s reach is powerful (vv. 16-24)

What struggles or weaknesses in my life have I acted as beyond the power of the Gospel’s reach?

Who have I considered too captive to the culture around me to bother reaching?

The gospel’s reach is adorned (vv. 25-34)
