Which do you think would leave the greatest mark on history?
You can tell how large a boat is by the size of the wake it leaves behind. Similarly, you can tell how significant a person is by how they impact history.
From a purely historical perspective, the most influential man in all of history was actually a carpenter turned travelling preacher.
And his name was Jesus.
H.G. Wells said; “I am an historian, not a believer, but I must confess as a historian that this penniless carpenter-preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very centre of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history.”
Historians, philosophers, and world leaders have marvelled at how Jesus has changed the world for the better.
He is without a doubt the most influential person in human history.
More than that, he is God in flesh.
He has changed the world for the better and his work isn’t done yet.
He has called us to carry on His legacy.
This weekend we’ll explore how He is calling each of us to follow Him. Every one of our actions, no matter how seemingly insignificant, can create a ripple effect that can change someone's life.
