Who Do You Think You Are?

Week 2

Sent on Purpose

THE POINT EXISTS TO WELCOME THE UNCHURCHED TO BECOME FULLY DEVOTED FOLLOWERS OF JESUS.

POINTING PEOPLE TO GOD

POINTING PEOPLE TO JESUS CHRIST

POINTING PEOPLE TO COMMUNITY

If Jesus gave us the Great Commission, why do so many of us struggle to live it out?

Matthew 28:18–20 (NIV):

“Then Jesus came to them and said, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.

And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.’”

Go tell others about Him, help them follow Him, teach them how to live out what He taught.

If Jesus clearly called us to go and make disciples, why do so many of us struggle to live that out?

You are chosen, not just saved

John 20:21 (NIV), “As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.”

You Were Sent to Show, Not Just Tell

Matthew 5:14–16 (NIV):

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”

You might be the only “Bible” someone ever reads.

You Don’t Go Alone

Acts 1:8 (NIV)

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)

“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”

You Have a Message Worth Sharing

 Romans 1:16 (NIV)

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes.”

You may be the only “Bible” someone ever reads.

 1 Peter 3:15 (NIV)

“Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.”

Pray for one person by name. Ask one question that opens a spiritual door. Share one part of your story. Just one intentional step.

Romans 10:9

"If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”
