Have you ever heard The Parable of the Sheep and the Goats? Jesus uses these two animals to contrast how the righteous vs the wicked treat other people. The crux of The Parable of the Sheep and the Goats is that God says to the righteous that they have fed, clothed and visited Him and therefore have a mansion prepared for them in heaven. When the righteous ask when they saw Him to do all these things, the Father answers, “Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these, ye have done it unto Me.”

As we seek to light the world and build the Kingdom, it’s important to remember that when we are in the service of our fellow-beings we are only in the service of our God.

I had my own experience having goats and learned first-hand what Jesus meant by the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats. In this video I share the parable and my own insights from my days of goat-herding.

Please join us for the 90 Day Light the World: Build the Kingdom Challenge!

How the Challenge Works

Step 1: Ask God each day, “What is one thing I can do to light the world and build the kingdom today?”

Step 2: ACT upon whatever He leads you to do. Go through the day EXPECTING for opportunities to arise.

Step 3: Document somewhere — in your private journal or on your favorite social media platform.

Step 4: Share! If you share publicly, please use our hash tags: #BuildTheKingdom and #LightTheWorldNow so I can cheer you on! If you’re going to be documenting privately, I recommend sharing your experience with a close friend or accountability partner. There is power in the sharing.
