Go with a Burden
<div> <div>Jesus tells two powerful parables in Luke 15 about a lost sheep and a lost coin that reveal God's passionate pursuit of every person. When religious leaders criticized Jesus for spending time with sinners, He responded by showing that God urgently seeks the lost with the same intensity as a shepherd searching for one missing sheep or a woman hunting for a precious coin. The heart of God is filled with love-driven urgency for every person because we are made in His image and have infinite worth. Our lack of evangelistic passion often stems not from logical concerns but from insufficient love for others. God eagerly waits to receive sinners and celebrates every salvation with heavenly joy.<br /> <br /> </div> <div><br /> --------------------<br /> ' Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming to hear him. But the Pharisees and the experts in the law were complaining, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.” So Jesus told them this parable: “Which one of you, if he has a hundred sheep and loses one of them, would not leave the ninety-nine in the open pasture and go look for the one that is lost until he finds it? Then when he has found it, he places it on his shoulders, rejoicing. Returning home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, telling them, ‘Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost.’ I tell you, in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need to repent. “Or what woman, if she has ten silver coins and loses one of them, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search thoroughly until she finds it? Then when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin that I had lost.’ In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”'<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.bible.com/bible/107/LUK.15.1-10.NET" target="_blank">Luke 15:1-10</a><br /> <br /> </div> <div><br /> ---------------------<br /> I.

Vision 2031
<div>Churches can lose sight of their true purpose when distracted by worldly concerns or even good things that become idols. True vision is God-given foresight that helps us see clearly who He's calling us to be, not just what we'll be doing. Our foundation must be seeking God's kingdom first and dreaming God-sized dreams that require His power. The church exists primarily for those not yet part of it, with the core purpose of helping others believe that Jesus is both Savior and Lord. When God gives vision, we must act faithfully while remembering that every person we encounter is an eternal soul who needs to know Jesus loves them.<br /> <br /> -------------------<br /> ' But these are recorded so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.'<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.bible.com/bible/107/JHN.20.31.NET" target="_blank">John 20:31</a><br /> </div>

Passing Down the Legacy
<div> <div>Every church has a legacy that spans generations, but building a church for every generation requires intentionally passing down faith to those who come after us. The key starts with listening to God's voice by inclining our ears toward Him through regular time in Scripture, prayer, and mindful consumption of what feeds our minds. Statistics show that 72% of adult evangelicals were saved before age 18, making it critical that we reach young people before Satan does. Truth is hard to grasp alone, so every generation needs spiritual mentors who will teach them step by step how to follow Jesus. We must show and tell God's glory with the same excitement as childhood show-and-tell, being genuinely captivated by God ourselves since young people can easily distinguish authentic faith from religious pretense. Building this legacy requires removing barriers, prioritizing the next generation through investment of time and resources, and engaging across generational lines with love that transcends age gaps.<br /> </div> <div><br /> </div> <div>--------<br /> </div> <div>' Pay attention, my people, to my instruction! Listen to the words I speak! I will sing a song that imparts wisdom; I will make insightful observations about the past. What we have heard and learned – that which our ancestors have told us – we will not hide from their descendants. We will tell the next generation about the Lord ’s praiseworthy acts, about his strength and the amazing things he has done.'<br /> </div> <div><br /> </div> <div><a href="https://www.bible.com/bible/107/PSA.78.1-4.NET" target="_blank">Psalms 78:1-4</a></div> </div>
