The Macarena

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Matthew 28:19 NIV

Our after-Christmas purchase was an Echo. Yes, we've become Alexa users, connected to the web 24/7. I'm sure as time goes on we will transform into a smart house, but for now, Alexa is good at playing music which is very good for impromptu dance parties. I have passed on my love of music and dance to my youngest, and of course we love all the fun party dances. I've taught her the Macarena, the electric slide and the cotton eye joe (which I learned from my oldest at her wedding). And we can't forget the Thriller. What would party dances be without it?

What can all this have to do with today's verse? I've made a disciple out of my youngest. She listens and learns from me when it comes to music. She also teaches me about more modern tunes and I then enjoy giving her history lessons of how that music started or where they got the inspiration.

It's so easy to pass on the things we love. So why not pass on our love for Jesus? Make disciples out of those you know. Get them to be eager to learn and then let them give their insight as well. Each person has their own unique way of telling the gospel. They pass it on and those people pass it on and soon the love of God is known everywhere.

Make disciples of all. The world needs to know of God's love.
