WORSHIP ... GROW ... SERVE.
NEW SERMON SERIES: FULLY DEVOTED
This Sunday (3/4):  The One
Scripture:  Luke 15

Somehow we, as Christ followers, have complicated the simplest of directives from Jesus.  In Matthew 28:19 Jesus says, "Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit."  This call to "make disciples of all nations" is not a call to focus on believers, but it is a call to "go" after the lost, and make them into fully devoted followers.  This Sunday we will unpack Luke 15 where Jesus sheds light on the importance of going after the ONE who is lost. 
Note:  This is the first of four sermons about our call to create MC
