The Food Truck is on the Move

The Food Truck is On The Move In this class, you will discover how the Lord has called us to be alive and active not stagnant and stationary for the sake of the Gospel in our community.

Acts 20:22- And see now I GO

And see, now I GO bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will happen to me there, except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that chains and tribulations await me. But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

Acts 20:22–24

1. The Food Truck’s Mission is to Go!

Mark 16:15

And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.

This is the Great Commission

Commission: An order for someone to do something and get paid:

GO!

πορεύομαι (poreuomai): To depart; To journey; To Walk

It is a command that requires action.

Matthew 8:9

9 For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”

We are under the Lord’s authority.

Into

εἰς (eis): To be among, to be with

Matthew 13- Parable of the Sower

We must go into the field, to scatter the seed.

Can’t sit at home and expect the seed to make it to the field

ALL the World

Our call is to All, but it can start small.

Acts 1:8

Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, the end of the earth

Your Neighborhood, Workplace, School,

2. The Food Truck is Intentional !

John 4:4-9

But He needed to go through Samaria. 5 So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.6 Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.” 8 For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.9 Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, “How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

He needed to Go.

John 4:4

Jews had NO dealings with Samaritans

They would actually take a longer route from Judea to Galilee

He invested time.

John 4:6-7

He slowed down the pace of His life

He demonstrated value in her.

Who is it that God has put in your life that you are called to invest time with for the Gospel? _________________

He was vulnerable .

John 4:9

He put his reputation on the line, for her eternal life.

He was breaking all sorts of cultural norms for her life

He was a Jew, she was a Samaritan

Males and females did not have interaction like this
