We are Family Leading People to a Life-Transforming Relationship with God

How?

Core-We have a Father who Loves us so He created children.

We are Disciples who create disciples.

We are the Kingdom of God to Noble County.

(Page 943)

Who is being sent?

Who is being willing to go?

Who is talking?

How are they going to believe unless we tell them?

If we are not careful we can become very content with our routine and forget about telling people about Jesus and the Kingdom of God.

Jesus preached about the Kingdom of Heaven.

(Page 801)

Jesus preached a message the woke up the people around Him. The people had been waiting on the Kingdom of Heaven to come, now Jesus said that it was here.

How would this message relate to today? Obviously if we walk around preaching the Kingdom of Heaven is here then people would look at us funny.

Preaching is more about action than it is about words.

What has God put inside you?

(Page 807)

Jesus woke up what was inside the disciples by releasing them into the city to pray for the sick, raise the dead...

Key-Freely you have recieved, freely give!

What has been given to you is to be given to others?

What has been given to you?

What has got deposited in your spirit, then give it away.

When you do then the Kingdom is being shown.

Be Bold, Don’t Be Stingy

When the disciples faced persecution they asked for boldness.

This is a great example for us.

I believe it is time for us to take some time to discover what God has done for us, then ask ourself the hard question, are we giving it away?
