Matthew Prather - June 3, 2018
| C O N N E C T |
It may seem obvious, but if we never connect and spend time with people who are far from God, it’s going to be impossible to introduce them to Jesus. Jesus set an example for us by hanging around with people who needed Him—people who needed to be healed, not just physically but spiritually. And He calls us as His followers to not only believe in him, but to live like him and do the same.

From Series: "Life On Mission"
Most of us who know and follow Jesus want to tell others about him, to share our faith. We want to live life on mission, obeying Jesus' final command to us: "Go into all the world and make disciples.” But when it comes to actually engaging in evangelism, we hesitate. We get intimidated, uncertain, or even confused. Sharing our faith should be natural, easy; but it isn’t always. In this sermon series we are going to look at topics like how to connect with unbelievers, how serving others can open their hearts to the gospel, and how paying attention to our own spiritual growth can strengthen our witness.
