Sermons About Missions
Reassign Your Resources
Our lives are given to us on loan from God. He wants to write His story through our lives. In order for that to happen, we need to keep the right perspective and use our resources accordingly.

God’s Passion: To Be Worshipped Among All Nations
God’s Passion: To Be Worshipped Among All Nations His heartbeat: 1. “I myself will provide for my sheep and look after them.” 2. You will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord, for the display of His splendor. 3. To Pharaoh: (Ex.9:13-16) “I have raised you up: a. that I might show you My power and; b. that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth. 4. To the house of Israel: (Ez.36:16-23) a. “I had concern for My holy name.” b. You profaned My name by your disobedience. c. “I will show Myself holy through you before their eyes.” d. “Then the nations will know that I am LORD.” Conclusion: Missions is the vehicle to bring all nations to the feet of our great God! Worship is the fuel and goal of missions. Quote from John Piper: “Missions isn’t the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exists because worship doesn’t. Worship, therefore, is the fuel and goal of missions. It’s the goal of missions because in missions we simply aim to bring the nations into the white-hot enjoyment of God’s glory.” (Let the Nations be Glad, the Supremacy of God in Missions)

2008 Missionary Report
You shall be my witnesses ... to the ends of the earth." This Sunday, instead of a traditional sermon, we are taking the opportunity to have several members of our congregation share some of their experiences from the recent short-term mission trips to Juarez, Uganda and Congo. Those who participated in these trips have a strong sense of the privilege it was to represent all of us from CCPC. They also have a strong sense that, though they were given the opportunity to make a difference, it was perhaps as important that they were made different. We as a congregation can be very thankful that the Lord has called us to a life together ... a life of meaning, purpose and service. This morning, we celebrate God’s grace that unites us with God’s people worldwide!

Reaching the Least Reached
It is so easy to be content with the pleasures and treasures we enjoy here in North American culture. The team that went to Mongolia serves as a reminder to each one of us to reach out missionally to those right here in Kelowna, in our country, and around the world. Are you willing to pray, give and go to spread the message of Jesus?

Report on Missions
Foreign missions is a vital aspect of Crossweave. Even while our church plant was still in the planning stage—before grand opening—we had already sent out our first missionaries to Hong Kong. Crossweave is fortunate to have Luke Carr head our missions to both Africa and Mexico. This podcast gives you a little glimpse of how God gave him and his family a passion to do mission work. Pastor Ritchie concludes this report describing missions and church planting similar to a crash of rhinos that run at 30 mph and can only see 30 feet ahead. He uses Matthew 24:16 to introduce the next series, “Take Up Your Cross”—a call to deny yourself and complete trust in God’s leading.

Is It Time To Weep?
Witnessing and reaching out to the lost out a sence duty rarely produces lasting results. Until we see people the way God does, we will not be effective in reaching the lost. We need to love people the way God loves people. Jesus wept over Jerusalem. Are you weeping over the lost?

The Gospel Begins With Go
Sermon Notes The Gospel Begins With Go John 3:16 October 28, 2007 Rev. John Schmidtke All over the world, there are unloved, lost people. Tens of thousands of them live nearby. The early church loved – each other and everyone else. Our culture isn’t loving. Love gives evidence. So does lack of love Love is a leap of faith. You take risks. You make plans. The Bible describes love – 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 Love keeps no record of wrongs. We are to love everyone. Can we feel love from a God we fear? – Exodus 20:18-19 Creation is evidence Jesus is the greatest evidence Father and Son were close – John 1:18, 17:11 God loved us enough to go. Do we love others enough to go?

Information to Relational
When it came to meeting our basic needs, God didn’t give us information, He gave us a relationship. In the same manner, Jesus in preparing to send his disciples into the world to impact the world didn’t promise more information, He promised a relationship and stressed how important their relationship to one another was to their success. In the past, we have sought to transform people by informing people. However, real transformation is the result of relationships.
