Missions Sunday
Sunday, September 24, 2023
Read Acts 1:6-8
- What are the 3 spheres of mission Jim discussed in verse 8? 
- Jerusalem (Miami Valley) 
- Judea and Samaria (Ohio and America) 
- Ends of the earth (global mission) 
- More than 80% of the Miami Valley does not have a relationship with Christ. How does that knowledge affect you? 
- What is the chief end of man? (to glorify God and enjoy him forever) 
- How does this purpose of existence, drive mission in our lives? 
- Consider Psalm 67 
- How does God’s grace and shining on you allow you to make his name known in your life? 
- What was one takeaway for you from the testimonies of recent mission trips? 
- What is your part in the mission work going on around the globe? 
- What is one action step you can take in response to hearing about missions this past Sunday? 
- There was a lot of discussion regarding prayer and awareness of mission work around the world. How does prayer affect missions? 
- Consider Romans 10:14-17 
- Outside of the classic “share the gospel more,” what are some practical steps you need to take to open your mouth for others to hear? 
- Is the Lord stirring in your heart to be a goer or a sender? 
Goer = being sent to make disciples on a foreign field
Sender = supporting others who go through financial means, prayer, and providing a home base
Is the Lord prompting anyone in our group to go to the field? Short term or long term? Please share.
