    Mission Possible

     | 2,692 views

    Peter could only do the impossible as long as he focused on Jesus instead of on his surroundings.

    As sometimes happens, this sermon took a turn I had not expected once I really got into it. Not a very big one, mind you, but I would up focusing on the gospel lesson instead of Paul’s letter to the Galatians. I do like, when I can, to tie the three lessons together, and these three seemed to be ...read more

    The story of Christmas shows how God's missionary heart sent Jesus to be our Savior. You can share that message of hope this Christmas with your congregation.

    Opening illustration: Play video of Office Christmas. Introduction: We know that the church is supposed to be about Christ's mission on earth - preaching the gospel, making disciples, baptizing and teaching them. But have you considered that it is God who is the true Missionary? The story of ...read more

    The writer of Hebrews tells we have a mission which is to confess, be confident, and continue in the faith no matter what.

    Hebrews 10:11-25 “Our Mission” 1. The writer of Hebrew is telling us about the offerings for sin • The Priest offering for sin “11 And every priest stands day after day at his service, offering again and again the same sacrifices that can never take away sins.” • The Christ offering for sin: . ...read more

    They hated Me without cause.

    THE COST OF MISSION. John 15:18-25. Jesus was preparing His disciples for the work of world mission. He warned them that they would face opposition, even as He first faced opposition ahead of them. In effect, “If the world hates you, remember that it hated Me before you” (John 15:18). One of ...read more

    The Mission Of The Seventy.

     | 2,157 views

    The first flush of success leaves us vulnerable, but Jesus teaches us a better rejoicing.

    THE MISSION OF THE SEVENTY. Luke 10:1-24. LUKE 10:1. The first thing we might notice about the appointment of the seventy in this passage is that they were appointed by Jesus. It is hazardous for anybody to enter into ministry without the commissioning of Jesus. ‘How shall they preach unless ...read more

    The Mission Of Isaiah.

    The mission of Isaiah was to go to a people who were proudly short-sighted, stubbornly deaf, and willfully ignorant of the word of God.

    THE MISSION OF ISAIAH. (1). Context: Isaiah 6:1-8. In Jerusalem, the prophet Isaiah was in the Temple, the place where the LORD God had set His tabernacle amongst His people. Here heaven and earth met, and the Temple below merged with the Temple above - of which it was a type and symbol. It was ...read more

    Commissioning Service: This message explores a significant ministry, as it looks at the "missionary call." To be discussed is the role played by God, and also the commitment required of the home church in the missionary’s support.

    During the Battle of Britain in the summer of 1940, Winston Churchill said of the brave men of the Royal Air Force, “Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.” A similar statement could be made concerning the missionaries from our churches. Compared to the larger ...read more

     | 153 views

    Jesus personally calls and empowers ordinary people to bring hope and healing, inviting us to trust his authority and join his compassionate mission.

    Friends, imagine Jesus speaking your name with a smile. Picture calloused hands from a carpenter’s bench reaching for ordinary people with ordinary lives—fishermen with tired shoulders, a tax collector with a checkered reputation, men whose resumes looked unimpressive by any earthly standard. Yet ...read more

     | 169 views

    God uses our ordinary gifts and daily acts of service to bless others, display His grace, and bring glory to Jesus in everyday life.

    Friends, can we talk about the quiet heroes God sends our way? The ones with flour on their aprons and prayer on their lips; the ones who show up with a casserole, a kind word, a seat at the table. I think of a dear woman I knew—no spotlight, no stage—just a well-worn Bible, a wobbly kitchen chair, ...read more

    The work of the Church is to be about the work of evangelism. We need to be about the Lord's work of sharing the word.

    The Church Mission

    The church is failing in its mission to preach and teach the Gospel to every nation, people, and tongue as Jesus commanded, because we are busy preaching feel-good prosperity-based messages.

    And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; ...read more

    A basic pattern of life is learning and putting it into practice what has been learnt. A baby listens and observes what is happening around him or her and soon begins to talk and walk. Every person follows the same pattern in life. He or she learns by listening, reading, studying and observing the ...read more
