Genesis Church: Sermon Audio

The Gospel has an engine that propels disciples out as missionaries. We see this clearly in Jesus’ ministry with His disciples. He invested in their lives, taught them the truths of the Gospel, and did a lot of ministry with them. This was preparation, as Jesus then calls them to lift their eyes to see the lostness and brokenness of their culture and begin praying. The amazing thing is that they actually become the answer to their own prayers as Jesus sends the disciples on mission. Disciples have spiritual gifts and part of spiritual growth is learning to use these gifts for the building up of the body of Christ and advancing the Kingdom of Christ. Any approach to discipleship that creates people who only sit and learn will create top-heavy Christians. The call of discipleship is to hear the call of Jesus and live as people who are sent together on mission.
