Sent to Seek and to Serve
February 4, 2018 • Peter Mueller
The third area of our vision we long for people to grow in is what we call EXPEDITION - this has to do with being sent to seek and to serve people in physical and spiritual need, both within the church and out in the world, locally and globally. Many of us experience what psychologists have termed "compassion fatigue" - we hear about so many tragic and difficult circumstances in the news that even though we might like to help, many of us check out and become numb instead because we don't even know where to start. While no one person or church can meet every need, Jesus nevertheless sends us out to seek and to serve those in need as we discern His leading which particular people in need He is calling us to each serve. We get to do that together as well as throughout our daily lives.
