In this sermon Dr. Adrian Smith does an excellent job of telling the story revealing the big picture of the message in the book of Ecclesiastes.

The workers of Christ, especially devoted to reach the lost of our world with the Gospel, are "few" indeed (and have always been). Yet it has always been through the "few" that Christ has expanded His Kingdom. Christ has invested in these "few" with His authority and as a result they are proven again and again to be more than conquerors. In Luke 10 Jesus taught His followers to pray to the Lord of...

The book of Jonah is a comical story of a reluctant prophet who tried to avoid God and His missional assignment. In God's mercy He overcame the resistance of the prophet Jonah, in order to display His mercy not only to Nineveh but also to Jonah.

God loves us more than we realize and He waits for us to return to Him when we stray. He then celebrates when we return to Him. In Luke 15 Jesus told a story about a compassionate father that loved his sons greatly, even though they strayed from him.

God has called, commissioned and empowered His church to continue His Mission. Being a disciple of Jesus and making disciples who follow Jesus is the core of that mission.

God extends His invitations to His Kingdom through His people and those invitations must go out to everyone with a sense of urgency and be received by the recipients.

Jesus calls His followers to obedience, abandon and mission. The results of heeding that call are amazing. In Luke chapter 5 we get a glimpse of the 1st disciples of Christ being called by Christ and their response.
