Confessions Of AMass EvangelistConfessions Of A Mass Evangelistby RK Castillo
https://purposeconcepts.s3.amazonaws.com/podcast/ConfessionsOfAMassEvangelist.mp3For more than a decade I was a part of a Mass Evangelism team that traveled, preaching the Gospel in stadiums around the world.
As I look back over the years, there’s one thing I would do differently.
You see, I’m always for preaching the Gospel. The more people hearing the Gospel of the Kingdom, the better!
In Luke 10 and Matthew 9, there’s only one thing Jesus said to pray for before going on outreach:
“He told them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” Luke 10:2
Did you see what he said to focus on?
Finding Workers!
Now you know why I call this the “Weekly Worker Maker”
As followers of Jesus we have one calling when going out:
In Matthew 10 and Luke 10 I imagine Jesus talking with his disciples. In Matthew he sends out 12, in Luke he sends out 72. He has all his workers with him and he says the the harvest is plentiful but the workers a few, ask the Lord of the harvest to send out workers.
So if Jesus has all his workers with him and he’s sending them out, where will the new workers come from?
The “Workers For The Harvest Come From The Harvest”
When we are preaching the Gospel in stadiums we primarily focus on getting people to raise their hands and come up to give their lives to Jesus.
There’s nothing wrong with that but it doesn’t help you find workers.
How do you know when you have found a worker?
The 3 M’s, Messenger, Message & Mission.
As mass evangelists we did the first 2 really well.
I think the one we didn’t do very well is the Mission part.
This is the strategy we implemented to helps us find workers.
I have all of our people ask someone who just said yes to Jesus:
“Tell me the names of 5 people who need to hear about what God just did in your life?”
After they share the 5 names, follow with this question.
“Out of those 5, who are you going to share with before you go to bed tonight?”
Then we get their contact info and call them the next day and ask how it went sharing with the person last night.
Probably 8 out of 10 won’t share, 1 might say “it went great talking with them.”
One of them will say “I talked with the one person, and called 5 others and told 10 people on the streets my story, too!”
Who is the worker?
The one who went and did the work.
May God anoint you to be a Worker Maker!
Many Blessings!

What Does God Want Me To Do With My Life?What Does God Want Me To Do With My Life? - Listen To The Podcastby RK Castillo
https://purposeconcepts.s3.amazonaws.com/podcast/The4Fields.mp3In This Video…00:00 – 2 Parts To Knowing What God Wants You To DoThere are 2 parts to answering the question “What Does God Want Me To Do?”
00:09 – IdentityWhat you do should always flow out of who you are.
Your identity is found by answering one question “What does God think about me?” Everything in your life will flow out of what you believe God thinks about you.
If I had to boil what God thinks about you to one word it would be love. God loves you 100% right now, the way you are and there’s nothing you can do to change that.
So whatever you do with your life should come out of your identity of being someone who is 100% loved by God.
00:39 – What Does God Want You To Do?Now to the second part…
What Does God Want Me To Do
When you’re trying to figure out your purpose, or your assignment. The one thing God has called you to do with your life.
00:48 – Convergence of 4 Different AreasI think that assignment comes from the convergence of 4 different areas:
Where these 4 areas converge into a single role is the thing God wants you to do.
So lets talk about the 4 questions to ask yourself to help you discover what God wants you to do with your life.
01:05 – PassionWhat one thing, if you were to do it everyday, would keep you fascinated and motivated for the rest of your life?
When I think about the word passion, i’m reminded of the movie ‘Passion’ which depicts Jesus laying down his life for the people he loved. He was passionate about people coming back to his Father. He was so passionate he was willing to endure the pain of the cross to get what mattered most to him.
What are you passionate about? What matters to you so much that you would endure the struggle and pain to keep going after that one thing?
The answer to this question helps you to figure out “What” you should be devoting your life to.
01:42 – StrengthsStrengths- What do people say they wish they could do like you, but you think they’re crazy because it comes to easy to you?
Every one of us has been uniquely designed by God to be great at doing at something. You have been hard wired in your brain to be great at something.
The unfortunate reality is a majority of people don’t take advantage of the neural network in their brains.
The Gallup Organization asked hundreds of thousands of people this question “Do you get to do what you do best everyday?” Only 17% of people answered yes to that question. Which means that less than 2 out of 10 people are doing what they’ve been designed by God to do on a daily basis.
So what comes naturally to you? What do you find yourself doing well without trying really hard? Is there something people say they wish they could do like you?
The answer to this question helps you to figure out the “How” How you will make a difference with your life.
02:35 – NeedsNeeds – If you could get a meeting with the President, Prime Minister or King and ask them to fix one problem, which problem would you ask them to fix?
When asking yourself the question, What does God want me to do with my life? It’s imperative that you understand this one principle. Your life is not about You. The greatest people are those who serve others.
If God wants you to serve others, what’s the best way for your to serve?
Find a problem and fix it.
So what problem are you called to fix?
Notice what gets your attention. When training people I will often send them to a busy neighborhood and ask them what they see. One group will see all the kids running around, one group will see the homeless, one group will see the young girls trying to impress the boys.
Everyone will see something different. Why? Because you have been uniquely designed by God to notice specific things so you can become a solution to a problem in that area.
If you could get a meeting with the President, Prime Minister or King and ask them to fix one problem, which problem would you ask them to fix?
That’s the problem you are called to fix.
03:39 – CallingCalling – What Does God Say You Should Do?
This is the most important question to ask yourself because the answer to this question overrides all the other questions.
The great thing about Jesus is he is a talking God. He loves to communicate to his people. If you are wondering what you are called to do, ask him.
He will tell you what to do.
Then it’s your job to be obedient to whatever he tells you.
04:10 – 4 Questions To Discover Your PurposeSo how does this all work together to help you figure out what to do?
Here are the 4 questions again:
We’re looking for a specific role where these 4 things converge.
04:36 – Convergence ExampleFor example, Lets say you are passionate about ending human trafficking and you have a strength of singing and songwriting and the problem you would ask a leader to fix is to stop allowing people to be sold as slaves and you know this is something God has asked you to do.
How does this converge into a single role that you know you can devote your life to?
What if you wrote songs about the trafficking problem to bring awareness to the problem so people could get involved in different initiatives to help eliminate people being sold as slaves.
05:05 – Example of How This Doesn’t WorkHere’s an example of how this doesn’t work:
I was training young people and one young man said “I am passionate about going to the lake and riding jet skis and water skiing and I’m pretty good at it.”
I explained to him that is not what God is calling you to do because all the things he was sharing are selfish and are about him. He’s not helping or serving anyone other than himself.
I have good news for you. God has a plan for you and that plan is not about you. It’s about serving others.
