Episode Notes

Be a Blessing

[The church] is not meant to call men [and women] out of the world and into a safe religious enclave but to call them out in order to send them back as agents of God’s kingship.  - Leslie Newbigin

 “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” -  John 20:21 NIV

• We are a sent people
• Sent in service of God and others
• For the glory of God
• Cultivates Christlikeness

 “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them.  Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all.  For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” - Mark 10:42-45 NIV
