Core Training - Others

The church is not the mission; the church is on a mission. 

  • What’s one idea from the message that stood out to you? Why do you think it grabbed you?

  • The church sometimes struggles to balance discipling members and evangelizing the lost. How do you handle the tension in those two?

Read: Matthew 28:18-20

  • Frank said that a better translation of “go” in verse 18 is “as you are going.” Where are some of the places you’re going? How are you “preaching the gospel” in those places?

Read: Romans 10:13-17

  • The church is on a mission to tell others about Jesus. How can your small group be more engaged in telling others about what Jesus has done?

  • The church is on a mission to send out others to tell people about Jesus. Who is God sending you to with the message of what Jesus has done?

  • Not everyone will receive the news of Jesus. Not everyone will believe. Not everyone will be saved. How people will respond to the Gospel is not your responsibility. What is? How can you be more faithful to that responsibility?

Prayer: Pray for the people in your lives who are far from God: your family, your neighbors, classmates and coworkers.
