A LOOK BACK AT THE VERY FIRST
WEEKEND OF SERVICE

   Getting Ready: 
        _{^{Luke 9:51-62}}

  Before they went out to serve, Jesus thinned the herd.

Track 3 of 5

  Serving Others: 
       _{^{Luke 10:1-17    Matthew 4:23-24    Matthew 26:6-15}}

 They weren’t sent out just to do good deeds.

 They were sent out as Jesus’ advance team.

 They focused on those who were open to their message.

  Reporting Back: 
       _{^{Luke 10:17-21    Mark 8:36-38    1 Peter 2:10-12}}

WHY IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN

  Words without good deeds lack credibility.

      Good deeds without words lack eternal impact.

  Genuine spirituality loves God AND our neighbor.
       
      That means we need both obedience & compassion.
        _{^{Matthew 22:36-40    John 14:15    Matthew 7:12}}

  What we do throughout the year is far more important than          
       anything we’ll ever do on a weekend.
         _{^{James 1:22-27}}
