The Cause Series

Contributed by Lynn Malone on Feb 24, 2016

The Church is called by Christ to be ON a mission. There is one reason that underlies the entirety of the mission--the crowds. This message explores the reasons Jesus called the Church to be on a mission.

We began Mission: Possible last week with a serious look at the call for the church, in general, and disciples in particular to be ON a mission from God.
