Matthew 28:16-20

Hope in a Dark World

                      Ironically, through the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the world meant to silence the name of the Lord, much like in Acts 6-7 with the martyr Stephen. The assassination has prompted all Christians to question how committed they are to their faith. Is the Gospel of Jesus Christ worth their own lives? America has been a somewhat safe place for the Gospel to flourish, and now that the luxury of our freedom from persecution has broken down, so has our false sense of security. Now, there will be a process that sorts through lukewarm Christians. Formerly, many Americans claimed to be Christian because it was the cultural norm; however, now with the reality of persecution, they will either dig deeper into their faith or forfeit their "faith" and cling to earthly security and treasures. I was faced with this dilemma as well. I asked myself, "If not Christ, then what?" That's the ultimate question. ...

The Cost of a Christian Life

          What is the cost of a Christian life? What does it look like to follow the Lord Jesus? Even within the Christian church today, there are different views of what a Christian life should consist of. What God demands from His followers, according to "Christians" today, could simply mean trying to live a good life. According to others, it could cost everything. Jesus shares the cost in passages like Luke 14:25-33, where He explains that being a disciple of His demands denying oneself, and being willing to give up anything for the sake of the Kingdom.               This question is vital, and the way you answer could be the difference between eternal life and eternal separation from God. There are far too many people around who claim to be Christ's but never spend time in God's Word, pray to the Lord, preach, teach, exhort, or believe in the mission of Christ. Despite all of that, the person still believes they a...

The Unreached

      In the previous blog post, I shared some of my testimony. Our testimonies simply put are personal stories of how God has ransomed us to himself through the cross of Christ. From how we went from being spiritually dead to spiritually alive in Christ. It’s the most powerful weapon that we possess. In my testimony, I mentioned that even before my salvation, most of the people I knew identified as Christians and I even went to a church. Many Christians from the United States can relate to having easy access to the gospel virtually anywhere we go. We are very privileged to be considered a reached people group. What if I told you that there were many places in the world today that are considered unreached? You may not even know what unreached means, but you will know the meaning by the end of this and much more.           People who are considered to be unreached are people who do not have access to a bible, a church, or someone who identif...

My Testimony

 Hello,     My name is Hunter Clark. I am  unbelievably excited and humbled by the opportunity that the Lord has provided through this platform. My vision for R.I.R. is to unite like-minded, mission-driven, and somewhat spontaneous followers of Christ to become a global force for the kingdom of God. Our goal is to see the commands of Christ in Matthew 28:16-20 come to fruition.      For me, this is something that I feel the Lord has called me to. Not  necessarily a blog, but much more than that. I hope to see this platform go far beyond what I have in mind. I would eventually love to see Ransomed in Red be able to play a part in training up Christians and sending them out into the world. There is nothing that I would love to see more than R.I.R. helping people who have a heart for the nations understand that calling better and how to execute on that. This is something that I'm passionate about because I feel that I have been called to the nations ...
