Join Heather Dellamater of Global Outreach International as she shares encouraging stories of God's faithfulness and the ways He is growing His Church across the Maasai people in Kenya.

There is a lot of discussion in the missions world on "multiplication vs. maturity" or "movement vs. healthy church." How should we think about these 2 different emphases in the work? Which is more important? Listen in as Jesse shares from Colossions that all missionaries must be furiously committed to both. 

The experts voice is rarely God's voice. In John 10, Jesus tells us about the stranger's voice and God's voice. The strangers voice can sound very reasonable and logical, even "smarter" than what God is speaking. But remember God uses the foolish things to confound the wise. Many times there can be a level of foolish to what God is asking you to do but when you obey the results are better than that of the experts. Reasoning and fear demand to be heard but God's voice is waiting for us to listen.

James M. Scott, Part Two: The Potsdam Declaration offered Japan a choice between rebuilding or "utter destruction." President Harry Truman greenlit the atomic bomb on the back of a pink telegram sheet, leading to historic missions piloted by Paul Tibbets, who trained his crew using concrete-filled "pumpkin" bombs. Following the devastating atomic strikes on Hiroshima and Nagasaki—where little was initially understood about radiation's long-term effects—Japan's military leaders still resisted surrendering. Junior officers launched a failed palace coup to destroy Emperor Hirohito's recorded surrender broadcast, but the rapid succession of the two bombings ultimately proved that total annihilation was imminent.

Woe to the bloody city, all full of lies and plunder! Nahum's last chapter moves like the assault itself, the crack of the whip, the rattle of the wheel, the galloping horse and bounding chariot, and then a question: are you better than Thebes? That Egyptian city sat secure behind her waters, and Assyria herself dragged the people of Thebes (No' ‘Amon) into exile. For Nineveh there is no easing of the hurt and no healing of the wound, and the book's last line explains why the nations clap when the news arrives: “upon whom has not come your unceasing evil?” God's judgment has come upon them as Law, but as comfort to those the Assyrians terrorized.  The Rev. Dr. Keith Haney, Assistant to the President for Missions, Human Care, and Stewardship in the LCMS Iowa District West, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Nahum 3:1-19. Edom stands at the crossroads and watches his brother Judah dragged off in chains, and Obadiah announces that the day of the LORD is coming for the bystander, too. Joel sees a locust swarm strip a nation bare in a single season, calls the people to rend their hearts and not their garments, and promises a Spirit poured out on all flesh. Nahum returns to Nineveh a century after Jonah's revival, and this time the superpower does not repent. Zephaniah spends two chapters on the day of wrath and then ends with the Lord singing over the people He has rescued. This series on Thy Strong Word works through these selected books of the so-called "minor" prophets verse by verse, showing how the Lord judges the nations while also keeping his promises to gather His people home.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations. Submit comments or questions to: thystrongword@kfuo.org.

Send us Fan MailLong before the modern day mission movement which has over 400,000 missionaries serving in foreign countries;  long before there were national missionary organizations, and churches that financially missionaries, there was one man. One man who was first to feel the urgent call to bring the Gospel to people in the dark and unreached places in the world. This one brave pioneer opened the door and made it possible for millions of missionaries to reach billions of people all over the world with the Gospel.

God is speaking to you for a reason. We can doubt or reason away God's voice. Some Christians believe God no longer speaks, but John 10 says, "My sheep hear my voice." So as a believer, it is not a matter of if God is speaking but a question of whether or not you are listening. A question of whether or not you are discerning God's voice. Can you tell the difference between God's voice and the enemy's voice? Between God's voice and your own voice? God's voice is a gift. Are you seeking, listening, training yourself to hear His voice?

How does the gospel actually travel from one person's heart to a stranger who has never heard it? Closing out missions month, Pastor Andrew examines Paul's chain of reasoning in Romans 10, tracing salvation backward from calling on Christ's name to believing, hearing, preaching, and being sent. He confronts the tension between the promise that "whosoever" can be saved and the sobering reality that vast regions of the world remain largely unreached, drawing on his own experience in Thailand to illustrate the gap. Listeners are challenged to identify who they are praying for, to make themselves available, and to embrace their own part in sending others with the gospel.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Why would a happy marriage, a forgiving spirit, or an unexplainable peace make a stranger want what you have? This message examines Psalm 67 against the backdrop of Numbers 6 and King Hezekiah's revival, showing that God's blessing on a believer's life is never meant to stop there. When God's countenance shines on His people, their changed lives become a missionary testimony that draws the nations toward salvation; while unconfessed sin does the opposite, wounding God's heart and giving skeptics reason to mock Him. Listeners are challenged to actively pursue God's smile, not for personal comfort, but so that the overflow of that blessing can change everyone around them.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The gospel is an unstoppable, miraculous truth, so why does reaching the lost still depend on ordinary people giving up their time, comfort, and money? This message examines 1 Corinthians 9 alongside Romans 10 and 2 Corinthians 12 to show that God has chosen to work through personal sacrifice, sending messengers who must first be commissioned and continually supported. Pastor Dorrell traces the Apostle Paul's example of surrendering personal liberty for the sake of others, arguing that mature Christian faith is marked by deference rather than the pursuit of personal rights. Listeners are challenged to willingly spend and be spent, giving up their own convenience so that someone else might hear the gospel and be saved.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

This episode covers three very different astronomy stories and then moves into a lively Q&A with listener questions. Andrew Dunkley and Professor Fred Watson discuss a possible sugary molecule in the center of the Milky Way, the risk lunar landers may contaminate ice that could preserve clues to life's origins, and a new way to track lost dogs using satellite connectivity. The second half of the episode answers questions about moons with atmospheres, secret astronomy, hot Jupiters, and black hole mergers.Key topicsIn this episode, Fred Watson explains an update from Peter Verweyen on MOND, now referred to as Aether Scalar Tensor Theory, and how it relates to dark matter and dark energy debates.We discuss the detection of erythrulose, a sugar molecule found in interstellar gas clouds near the center of the Milky Way, and why this matters for prebiotic chemistry.Fred describes how molecules like sugar can form in cold molecular clouds before stars and planets exist, making some ingredients for life surprisingly common.We discuss a new study warning that rocket exhaust from future lunar landings could contaminate ice in permanently shadowed craters at the Moon's south pole.The Moon's polar ice may contain ancient prebiotic molecules delivered by comets, asteroids, and dust, making it a possible time capsule for the chemistry that led to life.We discuss the practical and ethical problem that landers have to use rocket engines, and those exhaust plumes may spread methane and other organics across the lunar surface very quickly.Fred shares how satellite-based direct-to-cell or direct-to-mobile systems could help locate lost dogs in remote places without cell coverage.We discuss how this kind of tracking builds on existing GPS pet trackers, and how it could be useful in wilderness areas, while also noting the limits and concerns in national parks.Timestamps(00:00) Start of the episode and what's coming up(03:12) MOND update and the new AEST name(07:10) A sugary molecule in the center of our galaxy(09:51) Why sugar can form in deep space before stars exist(12:24) Why lunar landings could contaminate the Moon's ice(14:54) The Moon as a time capsule for prebiotic molecules(16:24) Methane exhaust and rapid contamination risk(18:37) Should the Moon be protected like a national park?(20:28) Satellite tracking for lost dogs in remote areas(24:52) Direct-to-mobile satellite technology explained(25:44) The Judas goat program and invasive species controlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/space-nuts-astronomy-insights-cosmic-discoveries--2631155/support.

What is a missionary, biblically speaking—and why should the local church, not the individual, be at the center of missions? In this episode of Theologically Driven, Phil Cecil is joined by Jeremy Pittsley, a Detroit Baptist Theological Seminary professor and former missionary to Kenya, to unpack a biblical theology of church and missions.Jeremy walks through the definitions of "church" and "missionary" from Acts 13 and 16, explains why sending must come from a local congregation, and lays out the core task of a missionary: gospel proclamation, gathering believers into local churches, and raising up indigenous leadership. Whether you're a pastor shaping your church's missions strategy, a missionary raising support, or just want a clearer biblical framework for missions, this episode offers grounded, practical theology drawn straight from the book of Acts.Learn more about Detroit Baptist Theological Seminary and fall class registration at dbts.edu.

Have you ever had a mentor who meant the world to you — someone whose guidance shaped you, whose presence steadied you, and whose absence you cannot quite imagine navigating without? The bond between a mentor and a mentee is one of the most formative relationships a person can have, and when that relationship changes or ends, the loss can feel staggering. Second Kings 2 gives us one of Scripture's most vivid and tender portraits of exactly that kind of transition. Elisha had followed Elijah faithfully for years, staying by his side through every step, refusing to leave him even three times on the road to the Jordan. When Elijah asks what he can do for Elisha before he is taken away, Elisha's answer is remarkable in its depth: let me inherit a double portion of your spirit. It is the request of someone who understands that the mission must continue, who honors his mentor so deeply that he wants to carry the torch forward and carry it well. And then the chariot of fire came, the whirlwind took Elijah, and Elisha saw him no more. What follows is one of the most powerful demonstrations of inherited spiritual legacy in all of Scripture: Elisha picks up the cloak, strikes the water, and the Jordan divides. The same God who worked through Elijah was still present and active. Missions can change hands, leaders can pass, and relationships can shift — but in the power of a bond built on honor, trust, and faith, God is always with us. Today's Bible Verse "Tell me, what can I do for you before I am taken from you?" 'Let me inherit a double portion of your spirit,' Elisha replied."— 2 Kings 2:9, NIV Ponder Today God places specific people in our lives for specific seasons, and His purposes do not end when those seasons do. The transition from Elijah to Elisha, Moses to Joshua, and John the Baptist to Jesus all reveal a God who orchestrates the passing of a torch with intentional care and continuity. A request for more of a mentor's spirit is one of the deepest forms of honor. Elisha was not asking for comfort or an easier road. He was asking to be equipped to carry the mission forward even more faithfully than before — out of love and respect for what Elijah had given him. Fear and grief can coexist with faithful forward movement. Elisha likely felt both dread and sorrow at losing Elijah. His request for a double portion was not the absence of fear — it may have been his way of choosing faith over it. What mentors deposit in us does not leave when they do. The courage, wisdom, and faith that Elijah poured into Elisha showed up the moment Elisha struck the water and the Jordan divided. The investment of a faithful mentor outlasts their presence. God is always with us through the transitions — even the ones that feel like loss. When a cherished relationship changes or ends, He does not leave us without guidance or strength. He continues to lead, equip, and show up for those who trust Him. A Prayer for You Today God, thank You for the mentors in my life who have guided and equipped me. Thank You for showing me how to hold fast to their teachings as a lasting gift, even when the relationship changes or they are gone. It is not easy to lose a close relationship with someone I admire, yet somehow they remain in my heart. Please fill me with Your courage when I have to let go, and give me faith to believe I can step up and step into a new role when a relationship changes hands. I need Your wisdom always. Keep guiding me to relationships that inspire me to grow better amid all the changes You lead me through. In Your precious name, Amen. Want More?

Tomer Tzaban, a former Israeli counterterrorism operative who spent a decade conducting undercover missions in Gaza, has detailed his experiences in a podcast interview about his book, “The Ghosts of Rafah: An Undercover Counter-Terrorism Agent in the Heart of the Middle East Conflict.” Tzaban spoke with Alan Skorski on the Alan Skorski Reports podcast about his years with the elite Shimshon unit, where he served from 1986 to 1996. The unit operated undercover inside Gaza, with agents frequently assuming Arab identities and relying on disguises and carefully developed cover stories. Tzaban described operations that involved tracking terrorist suspects, preventing attacks and targeting members of armed groups. One operation involved a group of terrorists who, according to Tzaban, had disguised themselves as young Orthodox Jewish men as part of a plan to abduct Israeli soldiers and hold them for ransom. Tzaban also described an operation in which an intended target was located in a heavily populated area. The team abandoned the mission after a large number of children emerged from a nearby school, he said. Protecting civilians took precedence over completing the operation, consistent with the procedures under which the unit operated. Maintaining a convincing disguise required attention to details that went far beyond clothing and appearance. Tzaban said operatives had to understand local customs, speech patterns and even seemingly insignificant differences in daily life. He recalled that agents avoided strongly scented personal-care products because unfamiliar fragrances could make them appear out of place. Teams also worked with local Arabic speakers who could navigate regional dialects and social nuances. According to Tzaban, Gaza's different areas had distinct dialects, making language a potentially dangerous vulnerability. An operative could speak Arabic well and still attract attention by using words or pronunciation associated with another region. The conversation also touched on “Fauda,” the Israeli television series about undercover counterterrorism operatives. Tzaban said he knows several actors involved with the series and believes some of the show's early storylines drew heavily on the kinds of missions conducted by units such as Shimshon. His book recounts individual operations while also examining the personal cost of spending years working undercover. Tzaban described the constant pressure of maintaining a false identity and the psychological effects that could continue long after an operation ended. Tzaban also discussed security concerns in Europe, arguing that some extremist organizations have pursued strategies for decades that are now becoming more visible. He warned that Western countries, including the United States, should study those developments rather than wait until similar threats emerge at home. The interview concluded with a discussion of the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel and the intelligence failures that preceded it. Tzaban said the attack represented a profound turning point for Israel and had consequences that extended far beyond the immediate security failure, changing the way many Israelis and Jews view the country's security and the threat posed by Hamas. “The Ghosts of Rafah” draws on Tzaban's experiences to provide a firsthand account of Israel's undercover counterterrorism operations in Gaza during the 1980s and 1990s.

Hosted by Steve Nerlich. We are still out there. Dear Cheap Astronomy – Why do some space missions last so long? So, we're all familiar with the stories of the Mars rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, landing with mission lifespans of 90 days, that then went on to rove the surface of Mars for 15 years. And the Voyager probes, launched in 1977, were supposed to have five-year missions, which are now going on 47 years and counting. So, what's going on? Is NASA just crap at predicting mission lifetimes?   Dear Cheap Astronomy – How much faster is nuclear thermal propulsion? The idea behind nuclear thermal propulsion or NTP is that you have a nuclear fission core, which is probably uranium-based. This can generate a lot of heat over long periods and you then feed in a propellant that will expand on heating, for example liquid hydrogen. The expanded gas then shoots out a rocket nozzle and pushes your spacecraft forward on the basis of Newton's actions produce opposite reactions.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Shame  and being set free from shame is such a hot topic, in both Christian and secular circles. Resources abound, but what does the Bible actually say? As we completed a biblical survey on shame, we were surprised at how much the Bible had to say on this topic! Listen in as we share key biblical principles that are necessary in order to deal with the universal emotion of shame. Biblical Survey on Shame: I. Genesis 2-3- Naked and unashamed… No sin, nothing to hide from one another or God, perfect unity in relationships, acceptance of one another. After sinning, they hid and covered themselves and were afraid… shame leads to fear, hiding parts of ourselves, isolation, and disconnection. Shame came when sin entered the world.  Now, there are two general sources of shame- directly from personal and/or corporate sin, or indirectly due to the brokenness in the world.  There are also biblical examples of people trying to make others feel ashamed for things they shouldn't feel ashamed of, such as barrenness. So there is appropriate shame and inappropriate shame.  II. Appropriate shame due to sinful behavior in Proverbs and prophets:Proverbs: There are ways of foolish or sinful living, such as dishonesty, gluttony, and laziness, that are shameful, that bring shame on oneself and one's parents or spouse. -Prov 10:5 -Prov 12:4 -Prov 13:5 -Prov 17:2 -Prov 18:13 -Prov 19:26 -Prov 28:7 -Prov 29:15Sexual sin/misconduct is especially shameful: -Lev. 20:17 -2 Sam. 13:12-13 -Matt. 1:19 -Rom. 1:27Isaiah: A life of rejecting God and worshipping idols is the most shameful life. Idolatry always leads to shame and disappointment. -Is 30:3-5 -Is 41:8, 10, 11 -Is 42:9-11 -Is 42:17 -Is 45:16-17, 19, 24-25 -Is 49 -Is 50:6-9 -Is 51:7, 12-13 -Is 61:7 Sometimes shame is due to both sin and resulting defeat from enemies and/or God's judgment: -Ezra 8:22 -Ezra 9:6-7 -Neh. 1:3 -Daniel 9:7 III. Shame not directly due to personal sin, but due to perceived failure, deficiency, or defeat:Barrenness was considered shameful by society: -Gen. 30:23 -1 Sam. 1:6 -Luke 1:6 Being defeated by enemies feels shameful: -1 Sam. 17:26 -2 Sam. 10:5 / 1 Chron. 19:5 -2 Kings 18 -2 Chron. 32:21 2 Sam. 19:3, 5-Shame due to disapproval from others, but not necessarily personal sin.Sometimes shame is a result of seeing others' devotion and our lack of devotion (comparison): 2 Chron. 30:15 Now let's see how God responds. IV. When shame is an appropriate response to sin and a part of true confession and repentance, God is always ready to receive His children, welcome them into His Presence, replace their shame with gladness, and heal their faithlessness.  -Jer. 3:19-25; 4:2, 4, 14 -Jer. 31V. When people continue in shameless sin, pride, and idolatry, God shames and judges them. In the book of Jeremiah, God's people are persisting in unrepentant idolatry, defiling God's places of worship with idolatry, and prophets are lying to the people in the name of God. God warns His people many times, but they are stiff-necked, stubborn, and unashamed of their idolatry. “They do not know how to blush.” God shames Israel and sends judgment upon them- for their unrepentant idolatry, for changing their glory (God) for that which does not profit (false gods), which is appalling, evil, and bitter. But God's heart is ALWAYS that His judgment (and shaming words) would lead to them feeling a proper shame over their sin, confess, turn back to God, and be restored. He remains ready to receive them, heal them, and turn their shame into joy. God's judgment of Israel's shameless idolatry and refusal to repent in Jeremiah:-Jer. 2:11-13, 26, 36-Jer. 5:3, 30, 31; 6:13-15-Jer. 6:13-20-Jer. 7:18-20 -Jer. 8:5-6, 9-Jer. 10:14-16-Jer. 11:12-15-Jer. 13:24-27-Jer. 17:13-Jer. 23:40 The book of Jeremiah ends with God's judgment on foreign nations and Israel's enemies who rejected God and continued in shameless sin, pride, and idolatry (Jer. 46-51). Their sin and idolatry led to their shame, disappointment, and God's judgment. This is the fulfillment of God's promise that His enemies would be ultimately shamed, and His people would be ultimately honored.  Jer. 46:12, 24 Jer. 51:17, 47-53 Ezekiel, Hosea, Joel, Obadiah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, and Zechariah all continue the theme of unrepentant idolatry leading to shame and God's judgment, and when repentant, to restoration with God.  Ez. 7:18; Ez. 16:61, 63; Ez. 32:24, 25, 30 Ez. 39:25-26 Ez. 43:10-11 Ez. 44:10-13 -Hosea 2:5; Hos. 4:7, 18; Hos. 9:10; Hos. 10:6. NT examples of God shaming prideful, unrepentant, shameless people: -Luke 13:16-17 -1 Cor. 1:27 -Rev. 3:18 VI. God promises not to let His people be put to shame (be ultimately defeated, ridiculed, or proven wrong), but to in the end to defend them, give them justice, honor, and eternal life. God's enemies will ultimately be put to shame. -Psalm 25:2-3, 20 -Psalm 34 -Psalm 71:1, 13, 24 -Ps 97:7 -Daniel 12:2 -Rom. 5:3-5 -Rom. 9:33 -Rom. 10:11 -Phil. 1:20 -Heb. 11:16 -1 Peter 2:6-7 VII. Jesus was shamefully treated (ridiculed, mocked, considered a failure, embarrassed, dishonored)- by others and b/c of our sin- in our place on the cross. On the cross he took not only our sin, but also the accompanying shame, for us. On the cross, he defeated Satan and all his enemies, putting them to shame. -Psalm 22 -Isaiah 53 -Luke 18:32 -Heb. 12:2 -Col. 2:15 -Rom. 8:1VIII. Jesus-followers are commanded by Jesus to follow Him and not be ashamed of Him, the gospel, or suffering for the gospel, at all cost. -Jeremiah warned the people of judgment for their sin and idolatry, in the face of persecution and rejection (and feeling shamed), and trusted God to ultimately honor him and shame the people.-Jer. 17:  -Jer. 20:11, 18-  -Jer. 37-38- -Mark 8:38; Luke 9:26 -Rom. 1:16 -1 Thess. 2:2- -2 Tim. 1:8, 12 -2 Tim. 1:16 -1 Peter 4:16 -Heb. 2:11 IX. Believers have been set free from sinful lifestyles that lead to shame, unfruitfulness, and death. Believers should live honorable lifestyles that will not put them to shame, but that results in fruit, sanctification, and eternal life, and puts their opponents to shame. -Rom. 6:21-22 -Phil. 3:19 -2 Tim. 2:15 -Titus 2:8 -1 Peter 3:16  -1 Peter 5:2 -Jesus taught His followers to purposefully humble themselves, take lower positions, and allow other people to exalt us, instead of exalting ourselves, which could lead to shame (embarrassment). Luke 14:9. -Believers can be put to shame by other believers' behavior. 2 Cor. 7:14. X. Sometimes believers need to rebuke one another for doing shameful things. -1 Cor. 6:5 -1 Cor. 14:35 -1 Cor. 15:34 -Eph. 5:12 -2 Thess. 3:14 -Titus 1:11 -We also can call out and rebuke others' sin without shaming them. 1 Cor. 4:14. XI. Sometimes, people “shame” others in order to express their anger, contempt, or criticism, and when it is unfair, we can refuse to be ashamed. -1 Sam. 20:30, 34 -2 Sam. 6:20-22 -Job's friends tried to shame him many times: 6:20; Job 8:22. Job 10:15 Job 11:3; Job 19:3In the face of unfair criticism, Paul defended his ministry and refused to be ashamed: 2 Cor. 10:8; 2 Cor. 11:21

Why does the gospel so often go unspoken, even among those who believe it changes lives? Working through the opening of Romans, the message examines Paul's claim that he is a debtor to all people, obligated by the grace he has received to bring the gospel to Greeks and barbarians, wise and unwise alike. The central thesis is that the gospel fails not for lack of power but for lack of a voice, since God's love for the world compels every believer to both eagerness and readiness to share Christ. Listeners are challenged to stop relying on others to carry the message and to become the voice the gospel needs in their own relationships and communities.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

What do you see when you look at God, and how does that vision shape everything else about you? This message walks through Isaiah's throne room encounter, tracing his path from crushing conviction to bold surrender. Confronted with the holiness of God, Isaiah moves from "woe is me" to "here am I, send me," a pattern every believer must follow: seeing God rightly, confessing sin honestly, receiving cleansing, and answering the call to go. Set against the church's missions month, the message presses listeners to identify whatever they are still withholding from God and to surrender it, trusting that one person reaching one more person for Christ can, over time, reach the whole world.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

What does it take to rob a believer of joy in sharing the gospel, and why did Paul's imprisonment fail to do it? Working through Paul's letter to the Philippians, the message shows how he found joy in advancing the gospel despite difficult circumstances, difficult people, and mixed motives around him, because his focus stayed fixed on magnifying Christ rather than himself. The central thesis is that the platforms, chains, and hardships in a believer's life become opportunities for the gospel when Christ, not comfort or self-promotion, becomes the aim. Listeners are challenged to identify their own God-given platform and ask what it would look like for their life to make Christ, rather than themselves, the most important thing.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Sunday evening message from the pulpit of Falls Baptist Church

Sermons, August 2026, Acts, Church on the Move, Missions, Pastor Ray Fowler

Rebellion is disobedience with an attitude. Our culture is full of rebellion because we have forgotten that God is truly working for our good. He is working to remove destruction from our lives. Firstly, is God's Word your final authority? God's Word gives us general commands, and good leadership is the blessing of specific commands for your life. God speaks through prophets, good leadership, and His voice to give you the exact direction and correction you need. Give God your willingness. Your joyful obedience. His commands are for your good. Obedience is truly better than sacrifice because sacrifice is what you have to give up when you don't obey God the first time. It is the willing and the obedient who will eat the good of the land. - Isaiah 1:19-20. Complete obedience to God is the greatest adventure in life.

The Power Of Having Daily Missions

Many times believers will say, "All Christians are missionaries," probably in an effort to encourage believers to preach the gospel to the lost. While all believers are evangelists and disciple-makers, all believers are not missionaries. The Bible teaches that some believers are set apart by God to be sent out to take the gospel to the unreached (aka missionaries). In this episode, we look at 3 passages in the New Testament that refer to the missionary calling: Acts 13:1-3, Romans 1:1-15, and Galatians 1:15-17. Read Acts 13:1-3: Who called Saul and Barnabas? What were they called to do? What was the church's role in Saul and Barnabas' sending? What had Saul and Barnabas been doing prior to their calling (Acts 11:19-30)? Read Rom. 1:1-15: How does Paul describe his calling? (v. 1, 5) Why did Paul want to go to Rome? (v. 15) How does Paul describe his desire to do the ministry? (under obligation-v. 15, and eager to do it- 15). Read Gal. 1:15-17: How does Paul describe his calling? What was he called to do? From this study, four foundational truths about the missionary calling emerge: 1. The missionary calling comes from an encounter with God and His heart for the nations. 2. The missionary calling comes through faithful engagement in God's work where we are. 3. The missionary calling produces a godly ambition to be a part of God's mission among the nations. 4. The missionary calling includes affirmation by God's people. Download the full biblical study, along with helpful resources, from the website.
