The mission of sharing the Gospel is a team sport. The church is a team made up of many different players, each with their own unique gifts and talents from God. The question is: are you in the game, or are you just watching from the sidelines?
We live in a broken world full of people looking for answers. Our mission is to simply, clearly and graciously share the hope of Jesus with the people around us.
We might see the goal of work being a paycheck, but the Bible tells us that we work for the Lord, no matter what our occupation is. When you arrive at your job, are you working to bring glory to God?
When our marriages and families take the place of God in our lives, they tend to come unraveled. God is glorified when we put our focus on Him first, and view our marriage and family through the lens of His ideal design.
God calls us to stop chasing money, comparison with others, sexual immorality, and deceit, not because He wants to control us, but because He loves us and knows that those things will ultimately leave us empty. Instead we're to live for Him in truth, patience, peace, kindness, and above all, love.
Our news feeds, screens and social media are filled with voices of crisis and uncertainty. Through the noise, God’s Word is the calming voice that gives us hope and reminds us of our security in Jesus Christ.
Christianity isn't a religion, it’s a relationship. While some would describe Christianity as a series of rules to follow, the truth of the Gospel is that we can have a right relationship with God not because of what we DO, but because of what Jesus DID.
Our days are filled with loud voices and media telling us what to think, feel, believe, and do. Where can we go to find truth? How do we hold onto truth in the midst of all the noise?
Our culture wants to call into question who Jesus is and make him into something less than the truth. We're called to stand together in unity, lovingly sharing the good news of Jesus Christ as he truly is with the world around us.
All of us have a unique calling that God has given us to play as our position on "team Jesus". The team functions best when everyone plays their part. What part is God calling you to play to grow His Kingdom?
