20We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.
[2 Corinthians 5:20 NIV]
God encourages Geoff to be an ambassador for him, especially when he’s being interviewed about the songs he has written.

GEOFF MOORE: There’s a verse Second Corinthians, Second Corinthians 5:20 that said we’re ambassadors for Christ, not us but Christ in treating through us that you might be reconciled to him.
I obviously travel all over the world and play music. And music’s a little over valued. You know it’s always funny. It’s like you know you write a three minute song about something and all of a sudden you’re an authority on the subject. You know so you’re doing magazine and radio interviews about some topic that you don’t have a clue what’s—you know, or you just had one little—one little observation about it.
But you know I’ve had to come to grips with the fact that those opportunities present themselves and I can either say well I’m just—I’m not going to say anything or I can realize that it’s a platform that God gives you to be able to walk through and, you know, if I’m going to walk through it I want to walk through as God’s ambassador.
So that’s kind of my—sort of my marching orders verse.

Good story,We need more people talking about the story of Christ in the public arena.
Our country need more people to talk with conviction of the life changing event in their lives.
