Search And Rescue pt. 5 | Pastor Josh Roberts | All People
This week at All People, Pastor Josh ties in "Search and Rescue”. He emphasizes that God is actively engaged in rescuing humanity from sin and has invited His followers to join this "mission of God," or Missio Dei. He asserts that believers are "missionaries first", regardless of their profession, and are called to "go" out into the world rather than simply "gather" in a church building, which is merely bricks and mortar until the congregation brings it to life. This outward focus is rooted in Jesus's example of seeking out the lost, exemplified by the story of Zacchaeus, and the understanding that rescue begins with relationships, not sermons. Ultimately, he encourages listeners to embrace their identity as ambassadors of Christ, participating in local and global outreach efforts, because true transformation occurs when individuals genuinely encounter Jesus, whose mission the church exists to further.
