[featured_image]Fair Haven Ministries launched their Missions Month message series a few weeks ago:
The Missional Challenge!
This growing church is committed to misison and multiplication. They provided their church family a guide to help them “learn how to be Jesus in your community and in your world – extending mercy, multiplying ministry, and mobilizing God’s people for mission!”
Each day members received an email message encouraging them to take simple daily steps forward to align with Jesus’ mission.
The Missional Challenge message series was adapted from Six-Word Lessons to Discover Missional Living (more info here). It was my privilege to be part of the services at Fair Haven yesterday.
We have been called as Christ followers to a life of radical transformation. We have been challenged to a life of devotion to Jesus and to live out His mission in our world. We have been sent by Jesus to be Jesus as we communicate God’s love and display the gospel locally and globally.
Those who follow Jesus have been commissioned – sent out with the message and mission of Jesus to be His witnesses – in our community, beyond our community, and around the world.
Engaging in The Missional Challenge is about giving…giving the gift of eternal life, giving people in need hope, giving the best of ourselves, giving our resources to extend mercy, to multiply ministry, and to mobilize God’s people for mission.
As we share in the next 25 days in The Missional Challenge, it is make a difference: a difference for Jesus, a difference for the gospel, a difference in our world.
