Do not conform 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 God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. \n-Romans 12:1-2 \n \nENGAGEMENT 2026: I Am Sending You (All)! \nNovember 1, 2026 – November 28, 2026 \n \nAs the Father has sent me, I am sending you. \n-Jesus (John 20:21) \n \nSome of Them! \nActs 11:19-30 \n \nTheme for Engagement 2026:\tI Am Sending You (All)! \n \nAs the Father has sent me, I am sending you. \n-Jesus (John 20:21) \n \n \nSERMON:\t\tSome of Them! \nText:\t\tActs 11:19-30 \n \nCONTEXT \nIn Acts 11, the Church was still in its infancy.

We are saved by grace, shepherded in community, and shaped to become more like Jesus. Therefore, we are sent to love our neighbors, share the good news and make disciples. \n \n \nLIVE SENT \nServe – Move toward people \nSend – Go and multiply \nSupport – Strengthen the work \n \n \nEvery person. Every generation. Every season. \n \n \nGOAL \nTo see Jesus reflected, shared, proclaimed in every arena possible as our church responds personally to the Great Commission. For “all of us” to be “some of them!” \n \n \n \nPRAYER:\t \nFather, strengthen my calling to The Great Commission. Amen. ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/UAbjbO_BQA3R5XEsQj1SCg2lWzYdffFGQbPeYIvJPQ8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM0Mjg4LzE2NjM1/OTk5NzAtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
