While most organizations engage in a process to solidify their mission statement, the church does not. Every local church has only to receive hers from the One who has all authority in heaven and on earth. After Jesus’ resurrection He revealed to His followers that our mission is to continue His mission to “make disciples of all nations.” In this message we will consider why this is the greatest mission on earth and how we all can participate!
Have you ever wondered what a Christian is actually supposed to do? After hearing the message and invitation of Jesus, believing in Him, having an ‘ah-ha!’ awakening… it can be hard to know what the next steps are. There are so many methods, voices, and opinions on how we should act and behave as Christians. But in this message, we look at the command of Jesus “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” and what that means for us as his modern-day disciples. How can we respond and follow in the dust of the Rabbi?
God is looking for true soldiers not chocolate soldiers. Which one does your life look like? Hear about what it looks like to join God’s mission and obey Jesus as a true soldier would!
