Serving like Jesus
As followers of Jesus we are called to emulate the life and practice of Jesus. In the Gospel of Mark (10.45) Jesus tells us that he came not to be served but to serve; One of the greatest examples left for us of Jesus' servant heart is found in John 13 when we read that he got down on his knees and washed his disciples feet. If that doesn't turn our understanding of leadership on its head what will? As Jesus' apprentices the question is not if we will serve but where! We are all called to take up the towel and serve. Richard Foster, in his book, Celebration of Disciple, says that if the cross is a sign of submission then the towel is the sign of service. We are all called, says Foster, to the ministry of the towel.

After the resurrection, Jesus has a chance to tell his followers what he feels is most important. It's like the final pep talk before a big game. And what does he say? In all four gospels, though recorded a bit differently in each, the emphasis is the same: go, tell, share, invite, make disciples, baptize, teach obedience, grow the kingdom-grow the church.

Invest And Invite - Reaching Out
God has made it very clear that HIs mission here on earth is to seek and to save the lost. Kevin deals with this issue head on so the church will not lose its focus. It is easy to become sermon listeners and fail to search for those that are disconnected from God. The fact that God considers anyone "lost" sould not be offensive but reflects that they are valuable to Him. Listen to this message and be ready to join the serch team.
