Clarity of Mission

Each person who grows in spiritual maturity will be confronted with their need to join with God in reaching the lost world around them.  As they begin to understand how God's grace has granted them freedom from sin, they realize that this gift is something that everyone they care about should also receive. 

The believer's journey of understanding how they have been justified before God by the shedding of Christ's blood and are being sanctified as they live a life focused on serving Him changes their selfish motivations.  They are transformed into loving people who are willing to invest in others and help them to live the abundant life that Jesus has to offer.

This journey of the new believer gives them perspective as to how to communicate to others what it means to be a Christ-follower. Those who fully commit to Him become impassioned and empowered to pursue the Great Commission. This clarity of purpose helps the believer understand the need to work wisely to explain the gospel to others, by words and deeds, so that they too can experience the same transformation.

The believer's love for others is attractive and particularly effective when it focuses on family and other close relationships. Their ability to speak to real-life issues and allow the Holy Spirit to soften the hearts of those they share with can lead to significant numbers of conversions.

As these trusted friends become discipled, they gain the same awareness of what God is doing to reach a lost world and join into the process of gathering friends, sharing the gospel, and teaching them what it means to be a Christ-follower.
