being available but obedient to God's call.

Becoming a Sending Church
After hearing some stories from church members involved in mission overseas and locally, we take a look at the call of Barnabas and Paul to embark on their first missionary journey from the church in Antioch in Acts 13. We notice some characteristics of their call which give us great guidance when it comes to being prepared to hear and respond to God's specific call to us.

Rebuilding Broken Lives
(click for audio)
Guest speaker Nigel Merrick brings us a challenge from the
book of Nehemiah for how we can approach the work of rebuilding broken lives.
The practical wisdom of Nehemiah's approach in rebuilding broken down walls
provides a great example for us as we seek to see lives, families and
communities restored to the glory that God intended but which has been lost due
to our sinfulness.

The One Who Gives Shall Receive
(click for audio)
In the first of our Mission Month series, guest speaker Leroy Randall challenges us from Proverbs 11:25 - "He who waters others shall himself be watered". The truth of this text is demonstrated in the way that God has designed the very workings of nature as well as in human relationships. Will we give of ourselves for the blessing of others, trusting God to provide what we need? When we step out in faith to bless others with the gospel in word and deed we discover that we can do far more than we expected; that we receive more than we give; and that most importantly, we have the joy of becoming more like Jesus.
