Slide 5
The Parable of the Lost Sheep 5 1 Now the tax collectors and
"sinners" were all gathering around to hear him. 2 But the
Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, "This man welcomes
sinners and eats with them." 3 Then Jesus told them this parable: 4
"Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Does
he not leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the
lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully
puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends
and neighbors together and says, 'Rejoice with me; I have found my
lost sheep.' 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more
rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over
ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.
Slide 6
The Parable of the Lost Coin 6 8 "Or suppose a woman has ten
silver coins [a] and loses one. Does she not light a lamp, sweep
the house and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she
finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says,
'Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.' 10 In the same way, I
tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God
over one sinner who repents."a
Slide 7
The Parable of the Lost Son 7 11 Jesus continued: "There was a
man who had two sons. 12 The younger one said to his father,
'Father, give me my share of the estate.' So he divided his
property between them. 13 "Not long after that, the younger son got
together all he had, set off for a distant country and there
squandered his wealth in wild living. 14 After he had spent
everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he
began to be in need.
Slide 8
The Parable of the Lost Son 8 15 So he went and hired himself
out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to
feed pigs. 16 He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the
pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything. 17 "When he came to
his senses, he said, 'How many of my father's hired men have food
to spare, and here I am starving to death! 18 I will set out and go
back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against
heaven and against you.
Slide 9
The Parable of the Lost Son 9 19 I am no longer worthy to be
called your son; make me like one of your hired men.' 20 So he got
up and went to his father. "But while he was still a long way off,
his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran
to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him. 21 "The son
said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.
I am no longer worthy to be called your son. [b] 'b
Slide 10
The Parable of the Lost Son 10 22 "But the father said to his
servants, 'Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring
on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf
and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate. 24 For this son of
mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' So
they began to celebrate. 25 "Meanwhile, the older son was in the
field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. 26
So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on.
27 'Your brother has come,' he replied, 'and your father has killed
the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.'
Slide 11
The Parable of the Lost Son 11 28 "The older brother became
angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with
him. 29 But he answered his father, 'Look! All these years I've
been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never
gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. 30
But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with
prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!' 31 "
'My son,' the father said, 'you are always with me, and everything
I have is yours. 32 But we had to celebrate and be glad, because
this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and
is found.'

Slide 15
The Conviction 15 The Church exists for nothing else but to
draw men into Christ, to make them little Christs. If they are not
doing that, all the cathedrals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the
Bible itself, are simply a waste of time. God became Man for no
other purpose. -C. S. Lewis
Slide 16
The Measure 16 If I profess with the loudest voice and the
clearest exposition every portion of the truth of God except that
little point which the world and the devil are at that moment are
attacking. I am not professing Christ however boldly I may be
professing Christ. For where the battle rages there the loyalty of
the solider is proven, and to be steady on all battlefields besides
is merely flight and disgrace if he flinches at that one point.
-Martin Luther

Core Values 18 WORSHIP COMMUNITY MISSION
Slide 19
Worship: Ex.3:12 19 12 And God said, I will be with you. And
this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: When
you have brought the people out of Egypt, you [a] will worship God
on this mountain.a
Slide 20
Worship: Romans 12:1-2 20 1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in
view of Gods mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy
and pleasing to Godthis is your spiritual [a] act of worship. 2 Do
not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to
test and approve what Gods will ishis good, pleasing and perfect
will.a
Slide 21
Worship 21 Missions is not the ultimate goal of the church.
Worship is. Missions exists because worship doesn't. - John
Piper
Slide 22
Community: Ex.19:4-6 22 4 You yourselves have seen what I did
to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles wings and brought you to
myself. 5 Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out
of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the
whole earth is mine, 6 you [a] will be for me a kingdom of priests
and a holy nation. These are the words you are to speak to the
Israelites.a
Slide 23
Community: 1 Peter 2:9-12 23 9 But you are a chosen people, a
royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that
you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness
into his wonderful light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now
you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now
you have received mercy. 11 Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and
strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war
against your soul. 12 Live such good lives among the pagans that,
though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds
and glorify God on the day he visits us.
Slide 24
Community 24 It is the duty of every Christian to be Christ to
his neighbor. -Martin Luther Do all the good you can by all the
means you can in all the places you can at all the times you can to
all the people you can as long as ever you can. -John Wesley
Slide 25
Mission: Matt. 28:19-20 25 19 Therefore go and make disciples
of all nations, baptizing them in [a] the name of the Father and of
the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey
everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always,
to the very end of the age.a
Slide 26
Mission: Acts 5: 38-39 26 38 Therefore, in the present case I
advise you: Leave these men alone! Let them go! For if their
purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail. 39 But if it
is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only
find yourselves fighting against God.

Mission 27 The Great Commission is not an option to be
considered; it is a command to be obeyed. -Hudson Taylor Someone
asked Will the heathen who have never heard the Gospel be saved? It
is more a question with me whether we -- who have the Gospel and
fail to give it to those who have not -- can be saved. -Charles
Spurgeon
