                                                             “Living in the Way of Jesus” Part 2
                                                                           Matthew 4:1-11
 
If I am a Christ follower I will embrace the Mission of God!
 
  • A missionary is one sent on a mission –
  • God has a mission which is called “missio Dei”
 
                                                       What is that Mission?  John 20:19-23  

“Jesus says, Peace be with you!  As the Father, has sent me, I am sending you!”
 
He gives them and He is giving us a Mission!
 
  • Presence - John 1:14
 
 We are called to be present!
 
  • Patience -  I Cor. 13:4, Psalm 40:1, Galatians 6:9
 
 We are called to be patient!
 
  •  Service -  Mark 10: 42-45 
 We are called to be humble!
 
                                                                    So How do we do this?
 
  • Culturally Intelligent - Acts 17: 16-34
 
 
  • Inhabit spaces in the world – John 1:14, Gen 12:1
 
  • Do whatever it takes – Romans 9:3
 
 
As someone Living the Way of Jesus, you are called to do your vocation with excellence, ministering and serving others through your work.
 
                                                                        Ephesians 4:11-13
 
                                                   We seek holiness, wholeness – (Shalom)
 
 
                                   Shalom means completeness, soundness, wholeness! 
                                   Shalom means everything that could be right with the world.
 
                          The mission of God is to bring Shalom to the world through YOU!
 

 
How might that come through you?

    David Craig, Pastor

    I began my journey as the Lead Pastor in June 2011.  Prior to coming to Shreveport I served in Texas, Pennsylvania, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma.  I studied religion and music at Southern Nazarene University and received my M.A. degree from Nazarene Theological Seminary.

    I was raised in a Christian home where I was exposed to the Lord at an early age.  As a junior in high school I felt a call to serve Jesus for a lifetime in the ministry.

    I and my wife, Dawn, have two sons. Caleb is a graduate of Southern Nazarene University and Adam attends ULM in Monroe, La

    In my spare time I enjoy sports of all kinds, but especially the Texas Longhorns.
