Your first mission field may be closer than you think—it may be sitting at your dinner table.

Parents have an incredible opportunity to bring their children to Jesus by filling everyday life with God’s Word, His love, His character, and His truth. Discipleship happens in the car, around the table, at bedtime, and in the ordinary moments of home.

Children don’t just need to know about Jesus. They need people who will deliberately help them know Jesus, serve Jesus, and build their lives around Him.

In this message, we look at why these parents were so determined to get their children to Jesus, what the Bible says about passing faith from one generation to the next, and why helping children grow spiritually isn’t simply the responsibility of parents, Bible class teachers, or youth workers. It belongs to the whole church.

I also share a very personal story about returning to the little West Texas congregation where my grandfather preached, where I was baptized in 1982, and where adults took the time to let a little kid learn how to lead singing, read Scripture, and serve. Forty-plus years later, that church is still investing in kids.

Those things may seem small.

But there are no small investments in the faith of a child.

What does real sacrifice look like for a Christian—and what should the sacrifice of Jesus change about the way we live?
From Abraham and Isaac to the “Lamb of God,” Jerry DeBord traces the biblical story of sacrifice and brings it home with one challenging question: What are we sacrificing for Him?

This Week's Message
https://youtu.be/-1UroQDvzz4?si=f5PZAzMQ1572uWBf

What if we stopped asking what "what is legal" and started asking what God originally designed? In this message, we look to Jesus' teaching in Matthew 19 to discover why he pointed the Pharisees past their legal loopholes and straight back to God's beautiful, intended ideal.

What is one area in your life or relationships where you need to shift from asking "what can I get away with?" to "what is God's true design?"

Sometimes the difficulty we have granting forgiveness to others is rooted in our need to accept God's grace for ourselves.
