Everyday:: Everyday Missionary
The Point: An Everyday Missionary is someone who is intentionally helping others take a step closer to Jesus.
Why would I intentionally interject my beliefs about Jesus on someone else?
1) Because He has saved me.
- Acts 4:19-20
- 2 Corinthians 5:14
2) Because He has sent me.
- Matthew 4:19
- Matthew 5:14
- John 20:21
- Matthew 28:19-20
- Acts 1:8
- Zephaniah 1:12
3) Because He is coming back for us.
- Acts 1:10-11
- Matthew 7:21-23
4 "We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work." - John 9:4
