So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out.
Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.
Romans 12:1-2
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.
Matthew 28:19-20
Every week, we read our great commission, sent to us from Jesus Himself – to go and make disciples. But what does that actually mean and how do we do it?? Well, we’re glad you asked!
That is what the FMC Pillars are all about – training people to go and make disciples!
In light of the 3 pillars we are offering May/June/July, think of it this way…
1. (how do you make disciples with) Grateful Hearts
2. (how do you make disciples while you) Reach the Lost
3. (how do you make disciples while you) Adore and Praise God
It all comes back to how we fulfill our great commission – to go and make disciples…that’s how the pillars help us prepare. 😁
