Sermons on Outreach
Prepared for Our Mission
John 14:18-26 The promise of the Holy Spirit was only the beginning of Jesus’ revelation about what will happen when he leaves the disciples. Pastor Rod Bunton explains that, with the help of the indwelling Trinity, we will have a desire to be obedient to carry out our mission to the world and we will have all the resources we need to carry it out.
God’s Sovereignty and Evangelism
Pastor Doug Link tackles a confusing topic among Christians: if God is sovereign over all and determines who is saved, why should we evangelize? NOTE: Due to technical difficulties, the recording only covers the first 17 minutes, 30 seconds of the lesson.
Waiting Patiently for the Lord
Mark, a missionary to Lebanon, gives us an update on his work — including the recently launched Shepherds’ Training Institute. This leads to a short message from Psalm 40 about trusting and waiting on the Lord.
Serving as a Guide to the Kingdom of Heaven
Acts 8:26-40 ~ The Bible instructs believers to go out into the world, making disciples and baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Pastor Ben Khazraee shows how we can be effective guides, leading non-believers to that summit to which the entire Bible points: Jesus Christ and his redemptive work on the cross.
Godly Leadership / Effective Evangelism
The characteristics of leaders in a healthy church are not the same as in the business world or military service. Pastor Rod Bunton covers godly Christian leadership and effective evangelism, two of the Twelve Marks of a Healthy Church.
