THE MAP MATTERS
Matthew 28:16-20 (NLT) “Then the eleven disciples left for Galilee, going to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him—but some of them doubted! 18 Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. 19 Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. 20 Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
A VISION without a MAP is just a VIEW
Proverbs 3:5-6 (NLT) Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. 6 Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.
God does not want to just show you a PICTURE - He wants to show you a PATH
Our PURPOSE is to help PEOPLE take their next STEP
STEP 1: CONNECT with GOD
You will only GO with someone you KNOW
STEP 2: CLAIM FREEDOM
The WAY of JESUS always leads to FREEDOM
STEP 3: CULTIVATE CALLING
CALLING is the COLLISION of PASSION, PURPOSE, and PRAYER
STEP 4: CHANGE THE WORLD
The CHURCH cant SAVE the WORLD but we can help CHANGE the WORLD
John 8:31-36 (NLT) Jesus said to the people who believed in him, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings. 32 And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” 33 “But we are descendants of Abraham,” they said. “We have never been slaves to anyone. What do you mean, ‘You will be set free’?” 34 Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave of sin. 35 A slave is not a permanent member of the family, but a son is part of the family forever. 36 So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.
JESUS SAVES you from SIN - but He DISCIPLES you out of DYSFUNCTION
