#3 - The Sequential Steps on a Journey with Jesus (Part 2)

Finding My Place

March 5, 2023 • Pastor Mark Geer • Acts 9:10–31, Matthew 28:16–20, 1 Corinthians 11:1, Acts 2:42–47, Ephesians 4:11–16

Today we continue our series on our Church Primary Strategies as we go deeper in exploring our church invitational model for ministry by looking at a series of sequential steps that people tend to take on their Journey to and with Jesus as they walk through this life. 

 

It’s a fascinating journey. Some of the steps are spiritually mentioned in Scripture and are Biblical requirements of knowing and following Jesus. Others are more sociological and practical and are steps that we can help facilitate and encourage as we walk alongside of people and assist them in their journey with Jesus. 


Today’s six steps range continue to build from the previous eight steps as we seek to help people who are interested in knowing more about Jesus to assimilate (get plugged into the life of the Church), connect with others and build meaningful relationships, and to grow in Christ through the Scriptures – what we call “discipleship”. 

 

We hope your exploration with us will inspire you not only about the mission of God, but also to see your place and role within the Body of Christ and our church ministry model as we seek to reach those who do not know Jesus personally with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
