The Cry of the Nations

Oct 25, 2026  •  Pastor Lonnie Campbell

What does it look like when a community decides that the gospel is not just something we receive on Sunday mornings but something we carry into every corner of our world? This message challenges us to see the people around us through the lens of genuine need, both spiritual and physical. Drawing from Acts 16:9-10, where a man from Macedonia pleads with Paul to come and help, we are reminded that the cry for help is not ancient history. It is happening right now, in our neighborhoods, our schools, and across the globe. The vision Paul received was not just a dream but a divine assignment, and the same principle applies to us. When we stumble across 900 pairs of shoes at a closeout store for pennies on the dollar, or when we watch the number of weekend lunch packets for hungry children grow from 100 to 217 in just a few weeks, we are witnessing the same God who multiplied loaves and fish still at work through willing hands. The spiritual lesson here is profound: readiness and obedience, not grand resources, are what God requires. We are invited to ask ourselves what assignment might be right in front of us that we have not yet recognized as a divine moment.
