Note from Tim Harlow:
“Your mission, should you choose to accept it…”
Our backyard is now the largest and most diverse mission field in the world. It’s almost as if God said, “Well, if My people are going to slack off from going to the world, I’m going to bring the world to them!”
I can almost bet your neighborhood is multi-cultural. The people on your street may speak different languages and live different lives than you do, but they are exactly the people Jesus had in mind when He said, “Go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19).
Now we know that “all nations” means the world – to the very ends of the earth. But I think we’ve forgotten that it also means the house next door, the end of the block, and around the corner.
It’s time to refocus our lives and redefine what it means to live a life on mission. We haven’t been given a new mission.
We’ve been given a chance to re-engage with the longing of God’s heart – to transform lives by bringing heaven to earth today, and earth to heaven for eternity.
Take this opportunity to meet with other Christians and to encourage one another to lovingly reach out, in word and in deed, to the people around you.
Ask God to help you discover what He has planned for you: a Life on Mission.
Glad we’re doing this together!
