Church In Action

When God called the Israelites to settle down, he placed them in what God called "the promised land." He wasn't kidding at all! The spies who assessed the land called it "a land flowing with milk and honey." Geologists categorize this desert place as a "fertile" crescent. It is a crescent shape piece of land that is both rich and productive. In the middle of the desert!!! 

God has called the church the same way. As a living organism, we are called to be fertile and multiply. Jesus' marching orders were: "Go into all the world and make disciples of all nations." 

In Acts 13:1-3, we discover four axiom statements that made the first Christian church in Antioch fertile and ready for multiplication. They are: 

1. Come and See 

2. Wait and Hear 

3. Go and Tell 

4. Listen and Obey 

Discussion:  

Spiritual pregnancy, just like any other pregnancies, comes with a price. But are we willing to invest in people to make disciples?  Who are the four you are going to pray for?  What unique action will you use this week to reach out to your four?  

This season, let us invest in four people to pray for and invite for the upcoming 4/4 event. This initiative is called 4 on 4/4. Who is your four, the four individuals you will pray for and invite this coming April the 4th?
