Go! (September 2 - September 30, 2007)

Go!

According to George Barna, there are over 190 million non-Christians in the United States, making America the third largest mission field in the world.  Ove half of these non-Christians have been attending Protestant chruches for over ten years, but have never made a decsion to follow Jesus Christ.  What are we going to do about it?

Go! (September 2 - September 30, 2007)
Why Go?
[September 2, 2007] Why Go? Moving Beyond Indifference. Seekers essentially have four needs: a need to know Christ, a need to respond to the conviction of God's Holy Spirit, a need to get connected into redemptive relationships, and a need to see the reality of God's love at work in their world. A formula for evangelism is: praying + loving + inviting + telling = maximum impact. A message by Jon Morrissette.   read more...
Go Pray!
[September 9, 2007] Go Pray! Beyond Good Intentions to Prayer. Evangelism is not a solo feat of human wisdom and strength. In order to be effective at evangelism, we must rely upon God's Spirit to bring the seeker under conviction. God's Spirit can powerfully stir a person's heart and cause him to become receptive to the gospel message. Our task is to be faithful in prayer, love, hospitality, and proclamation. A message by Jon Morrissette.  read more...
Go Love!
[September 16, 2007] Go Love! Beyond Good Intentions to Sacrifice. Evangelism doesn't occur in a vacuum, devoid of relationship and authenticity. As believers we need to focus on being the good news, and not just on proclaiming the good news. Christ calls us to a radical lifestyle of loving people wholly and sacrificially, while they are still in a condition of rebellion against God. A message by Jon Morrissette.  read more...
Go Invite!
[September 23, 2007] Go Invite! Beyond Good Intentions to Hospitality. We cannot hold people at arm's length if we are to be effective for God's kingdom. Through a ministry of hospitality, we must welcome the alien and stranger into redemptive circles of relationship within our Lakeside church family. A message by Jon Morrissette.   read more...
Go Tell!
[September 30, 2007] Go Tell! Beyond Good Intentions to Telling. It is not enough to be zealous, or enthusiastic, for Jesus Christ. Emotion is a wholly inadequate basis for fatih. Our zeal must be rooted in a deep knowledge of Christ. This knowledge equips us to provide a reasonable and persuasive defense of our faith that moves a believer toward faith. A message by Jon Morrissette.   read more...
