Why Missions?
- Because of the
- Because of the
- Because of the
- Would you rather make a meal or make reservations?
- Read Matthew 28:19. In light of Christ’s command to “make disciples of all nations”, why is it important for us to see that
the word “nations” is a reference to people groups rather than the nearly 200 countries in the world today?
- All people have been created in God’s image (Genesis 1:26–27). How should this truth affect our view of the
church’s mission?
- Why is it good news that God seeks his own glory in all that he does?
- Read Luke 16:19-31. How did Pastor John apply this story to missions in the sermon? Discuss the reasons why missions should be a part of every local church and Christian’s life.
- Given your life circumstances, what does “making disciples” look like practically for you?
- What are some ways that parents can raise their children to embrace their role in the Great Commission?
- It’s certainly critical that we share the gospel as we engage unreached people groups. Why is it also critical that we
do the slow work of discipleship?
- Read Psalm 96.
