On Purpose

2 Corinthians 5:17-21

The church reminds me of firemen straightening pictures on the wall of a burning house. -19^th C. evangelist, D. L. Moody

God has commissioned you to partner with Him in the changing lives business.

Everything we do is part of our MINISTRY PROCESS of helping people become maturing followers of Jesus.

 REACH       …if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature…        v. 17 

  GROW             …all these things are from God…                    v. 18a

EQUIP          ...gave us the ministry of reconciliation...       vv. 18b-19

SEND             ...we are ambassadors for Christ...               vv. 20-21

As a “commissioned ambassador” for the King, how will you serve in this ministry process?
