Jesus made it clear that his followers’ mission is to create more followers. But too often the gravitational pull of the local church is to focus on the people already there. In this series we will explore how to be an outward focused church. But, how will we know that we are getting it right? We know we’re in sync with our heavenly Father when we feel the way he does toward those outside of faith.
Sometimes if something is too familiar, we forget how significant it is. The parable of the prodigal son is a perfect example. And when we acknowledge where we are in the story, we’re positioned to discover where we need to be.
The church should be much more than a place people gather. As modeled in the early days of Christianity, it’s intended to look like a united, selfless, and committed family.
We believe following Jesus makes your life better and makes you better at life, and we want our local church to inspire people to follow him. This week, we will look at how we invite others to ‘come and see.’
