The Mission: Speaking the Gospel

Week 4: Speaking the Gospel

11/9/2025

Spotlight: Honoring Randy Overstreet

Main Passage: 1 Peter 3:14-17

Jesus has given us the gospel and it is our job to tell that good news to others.  We cannot simply live this out, it must be spoken!  But how do we do that?  We see many examples in Scripture of how to share the gospel and all are valid. But it must be spoken by all of us, not just those who are gifted evangelistically. Are we speaking the gospel to our neighbors?

Week 2: The Gospel

10/26/2025

Main passage: Mark 1:14-15

Jesus always challenged people to repent and believe in the gospel.  How do we teach this to others.  Through the framework of Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Restoration we can clearly tell people the plan and will of God for them. These are also bedrock realities that shape our understanding of life.  We must understand these realities and then be willing to share it.

Seek Him First: Seek First His Kingdom

Seek Him First: Seek First His Kingdom

Seek First His Kingdom

Main Passage: Matthew 6:33, Hebrews 11

We can’t seek Christ and not seek His Kingdom. But what does that mean? Our relationship with Jesus is not strictly internal. We are seeking to know Christ but also to live in Him amongst real people. We must have an idea of what His Kingdom is if we are to seek His Kingdom.

Seek Me With All of Your Heart Part 2

Main Passage: James 4:1-9

Another reason we do not seek the Lord is that we seek the world as well. We fail to experience more of the Lord because we are seeking after the world as well. James calls this being “double-minded.” This week we’ll explore topics from the book of James that hinder our ability to seek the Lord with our whole heart.

Main Passage: Jeremiah 29:13, Mark 12:30

The Lord commands us to love Him with all of ourselves. How do we do that? How do we continue to grow in our love for the Lord and continue to seek Him, even when we’ve been following for years? How do we continue to discover love to love about the Lord as we get older?

Seek Him First: The Promise of Spiritual Success

Seek Him First: The Promise of Spiritual Success

Main Passage: Luke 11:9-13/Matthew 7:7-11

God wants to be found! And thus He makes Himself findable. So why does it seem hard to find Him sometimes? Shouldn’t this be easier? This week we will explore why finding the Lord is not always immediate. But this promise must be firmly believed if we are to keep seeking.

Seek Him First: God is Seeking You

Seek Him First: God is Seeking You

Main Passage: Luke 19:1-10, John 4:16-26 (also Luke 15)

Seeking doesn’t start with us. Before we ever sought the Lord He was seeking us. But what is He looking for? Why would the Lord need to “look” for anything? In these two different passages we find that Jesus is seeking after the lost and receptive hearts.
