Preacher: Jeremy Herbert
Text: Acts 18:18-23
Thesis: Taking time to reflect, renew, and refresh will lead to greater fruitfulness and joy in ministry.
Notes:
- Purpose: what is my purpose in life?
- Parts: are all of the parts of my life falling in line with my purpose?
Three potential ways of living:
- Proactive — living purposefully
- Reactive — living by reaction to circumstances
- Inactive — living by following any other calling except Christ
If you get the calling to follow Christ right, the other parts (vocation, relationships, etc.) will fall into place
It is easy to fool yourself to into thinking you are yielded to Christ in every area because you are yielded in some areas.
What God desires is whatever you are least willing to yield to Him.
Supporting missions to “all peoples” includes, and does not obviate, reaching our own neighbors.
