Message Series: Who Wants a Staycation?
If we as believers desire to be about our Heavenly Father’s business, we don’t have to travel very far. No luggage or carry on is needed. We don’t even have to fly halfway around the world. Sometimes, the most essential ministry we can do is right in our own backyard, in our community. We are called to love folks right where they are. No vacation from our ordinary life is needed. A staycation is all that is required. We deal with a lot of interruptions in our lives, but we must view these distractions as divine appointments like Jesus did. This five-week sermon series will show us how to truly be ‘an ambassador’ of hope in our own community.
