Conditioned To Serve Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Aug 4, 2019

Prior to sending the disciples out in ministry, Jesus sought to prepare them for the task ahead. He did not promise it would be easy, but He did promise to provide for them. We share the same promises. Service isn't always easy, but the Lord is faithful to provide.

Conditioned to Serve Matthew 10: 9-15 As we continue to examine the instructions Jesus gave the disciples prior to sending them out to share their faith, we discover additional benefit for our lives and witness as well. While these were sent solely to the house of Israel, prior to Jesus’ death and ...read more

An Extraordinary Commission (Part 2)

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 25, 2025

Jesus gave His disciples a commission to go and preach; to not only do good deeds, but use words. He would provide them food, clothing, and shelter for their journey, and the Spirit would guide them to those receptive to the gospel.

I have entitled our sermon this morning, “An Extraordinary Commission,” and this will be Part 2. The word “extra-ordinary” means “outside, above and beyond the ordinary,” which is what we saw in our last message, when Jesus gave His disciples “power over unclean spirits” (Matthew 10:1); and ...read more
