Are you On Mission? Every Christian is responsible for sharing the Gospel with those here, near, and far. Evangelism is not a spiritual gift; it is a command. The Gospel message is what Jesus told us to carry to all people groups of the world. “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8 This collection is meant to challenge our lifestyle with the Gospel to break barriers and to see others come to Christ through our obedience. We must be On Mission, One Soul at a Time.

While on earth, Jesus performed many unexplainable signs, wonders, and miracles that caused people to follow Him. These supernatural events were dramatic and clear evidence that Jesus was the Son of God. They were performed out of love and compassion, to strengthen people’s faith, and to prove who He was. From turning water into wine, healing the sick, making the lame walk, bringing the dead back to life, to the miracle of salvation, Jesus made the impossible possible. These marvelous works show us that God is a miracle-working God who is still supernaturally transforming lives. “For the Father loves the Son and shows him everything he is doing, and he will show him greater works than these so that you will be amazed.” —John 5:20 This collection will highlight a few of Jesus’ miracles so that we can Marvel at His power.

How do we love our neighbors as ourselves? When God’s love transforms us, we can’t help but want others to experience the same love, grace, and freedom we enjoy through Christ. But how do we share that love with others without scaring them away or offending them? For most Christians, “evangelism” is a scary and intimidating word. What if there was a more organic, authentic way to share our faith with our friends, neighbors, and coworkers? “Do not owe anyone anything, except to love one another, for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law.” —Romans 13:8 Together, we can learn to be a blessing in our neighborhoods and to those around us.

Let’s face it, we all want stronger and closer family relationships. The family of God should live differently from the world in our feelings and behaviors toward one another. Every family is different and is made up of individuals with different values and desires. If each family member is not making Jesus greater, the family will struggle. If our families are going to experience greatness, Jesus must be first. When we put Jesus first, we will see the impact in our families. “He must become greater: I must become less.” —John 3:30 (NIV) This collection of talks will focus on practical ways to strengthen the relationships in our lives so that we can be the family God intends for us to be.
