Missions: Living Sent at Home and Abroad | MidWeek Reconnect | Pastor Drew Rowley

Описание: Missions is the final movement in how we live out our faith — evangelism, discipleship, and now missions. But missions is not a department of the church; it is the identity of the church. From Genesis to Revelation, we see a God who moves toward the lost and sends His people to do the same. Every salvation story becomes a sending story. Missions is not reserved for a few who feel called overseas — it is the calling of every believer who has encountered the grace of Jesus. To follow Christ is to live sent, right where you are and wherever God may lead.

• Missions is simply God revealing His heart for all people through His people.
• Missions is not an activity for some believers. It is an identity for all believers.
• God calls His people to carry the gospel wherever He sends them, starting at home and stretching to the world.
• Missions begins in our daily lives and expands wherever God opens the door for the gospel.
• The mission of missions is simple: take the gospel to the ends of the earth because the risen Christ has sent us.
• We receive the gospel, we carry the gospel, and we give the gospel.
• We are saved to be sent so that others may be saved.

Living sent means recognizing that ordinary places are mission fields and ordinary believers are God’s chosen messengers. The mission begins close to home, stretches beyond our comfort, and reaches to the ends of the earth. God’s plan has always been to make His salvation known through His people. As followers of Jesus, we are not spectators of the mission — we are participants. Until Christ returns, we live sent, carrying the hope of the gospel wherever God places our feet.
