Created for Mission - Part 1
Manage episode 396747283 series 1030904
In this sermon from 1 Peter 3:15, we looked at how we were created to live our lives on mission to make disciples for Jesus, beginning in our own neighborhoods and reaching toward the ends of the earth. We were also reminded that our mission starts with living our lives with sincere love for God and others, serving as a beacon to draw others toward Him. The Bible tells us that living our lives in this way draws people toward us as they see a hope in us that they desperately desire for themselves. In this passage, Peter reminded these persecuted Christians to always be prepared to explain, with gentleness and respect, the reason for the hope they had in Jesus. God reminds us today that He is also calling us to be prepared for these conversations, always ready to answer the question, “Why do you set your hope on Jesus?”
