The Ultimate Missionary

ShareThis

On the famous day of July 20th, 1969, Apollo 1, under the leadership of Neil Armstrong accomplished the first successful mission where a human being actually stepped foot on our moon. This changed history as we know it. We can probably think of many other famous missions in the history of the world. D-Day—that massive mission of Allied troops which landed on the Normandy Coast in 1944 which signaled the eventual end of World War II. Read more

Find It Here Door Hanger Saves A Life

GPS Door Hanger.jpg

Living Branch Community Fellowship in Englewood just completed their Spring Revival in partnership with Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Wort, Texas. During the preparation for the revival the Church distributed nearly 600 door hangers to the high concentration of apartment complexes in its area.

While the "results" from the door hangers may have seemed questionable, Tuesday evening they received a phone call from an obviously distraught caller we will call John (name changed).

John cried throughout the phone message he left, thanking them for leaving the flyer on his door and how it had caused him to think, a lot. He talked about how he believed in Jesus, but had fallen into a life of sin. Read more

Denver Church Mobilizes to Help City 'Find It Here'

Find It Here Doorhanging.jpg

The task at hand for members of Riverside Baptist Church: slip small plastic bags containing a couple of brochures on doorknobs or gateposts in assigned neighborhoods near their church.

The opportunity to share Christ so simply is one of the key reasons the Denver church joined thousands of others nationwide in distributing millions of the bags as part of the "God's Plan for Sharing: Across North America" effort developed by the North American Mission Board in conjunction with state convention partners.

"It's a wonderful opportunity for ministry," said Devon Gibson, one of 16 members of Riverside's Koinonia "impact group" which distributed 750 of the packets in 45 minutes. Read more

top ten.jpg

  Read more

  1. Pray! Mobilize your church to pray for all lost people in your community and your church’s efforts to reach them. Determine your territory.
  2. Determine which homes your church will touch through prayer and the Find It Here Gospel distribution. Check with your association to identify other participating churches so as not to overlap efforts.
  3. Order Across North America materials. The first item you’ll need is the Pastor/Church Preparation Guide. You can download this for free at www.gps2020.net or order a copy for a small fee by calling (866) 407-6262, (866) 407-6262. You’ll also need to order plastic bags and Find It Here Gospel drop-in pieces from your association or state convention at cmdonie@coloradobaptists.org —or find contact information at www.gps2020.net. Be sure to order enough for each home in your territory. You can also order church promotional items such as stand-up banners, outdoor banners, postcard invitations, bulletin inserts and many other items from Outreach, Inc at www.Outreach.com: search “Find it Here.”

What would have been Paul's Take on GPS?

question mark.jpg

Much has been written and spoken about God's Plan for Sharing (G.P.S.) in recent months. By now you are aware that G.P.S. is not a program, but an emphasis or initiative by the S.B.C. to simply say, "we need to get back to making the main thing (sharing Christ with everyone), the main thing!" This initiative comes as our beloved convention is experiencing years of a lack of growth in this key statistic representing souls being "born again" into God's Kingdom! A recent survey by Parade of spirituality in America revealed that although 69% of those surveyed said they believed in God, 59% said that all religions were valid and 50% said they seldom attend religious services.

When Faith Takes Flight.jpg

Lakewood Pastor Connects Faith with Flight A new book by a Colorado Baptist pastor connects lessons learned while piloting airplanes to lessons applied to walking in faith. When Faith Takes Flight by Bear Valley Church pastor Jim Walters is "the gospel according to a flight instructor." Jim learned to fly 40 years ago and has been teaching flying longer than he has been preaching. He says, "What makes me weep and pound the table is talking with young people every week who claim to be believers but cannot articulate even the basics of their own faith." Read more

Evangelism Made Real

Without a doubt one of the most exciting things to be a part of is leading someone to faith in Jesus Christ. As I discovered this past month, a close second would be seeing someone you have been discipling lead someone to Christ for the very first time ever. I remember when Mark and I first talked about sharing Christ. It was a foreign thought to him, and he was reluctant to go there. Read more

GPS...God's Plan for Sharing

 

What is the ultimate goal for God’s Plan for Sharing (GPS)?

The goal of “God’s Plan for Sharing” (GPS) is to fulfill the Great Commission in North America by Every believer sharing and Every person hearing by 2020. This journey is guided by a process with four biblical markers:

  • Praying- every church praying for lost people
  • Engaging- every believer sharing as a trained witness
  • Sowing- every lost person receiving a witness
    • Does your Church have the RESOURCES to share the Good News?
  • Harvesting- every church harvesting and celebrating every salvation result.

FROM THE WEST TO THE WORLD

ShareThis

 

There is much written and discussed these days about Globalization.  If one gets on the Internet, looks at seminars for leaders in the business world or even watches CNN or any of the video news magazines, the term is used frequently.  The difficulty comes when we try to nail down exactly what  Globalization is.  Webster’s New World Dictionary lists it as: glob-al-ism (-iz|m) n. a policy, outlook, etc. that is worldwide in scope --global-ist n. , adj. 

  Or    glob-al-ize (globl iz) vt. -ized, -iz|ing to make global; esp., to organize or establish worldwide --glob|al-i-zation n. 

  Most business writings characterize it as a “global village” or  “one world government”. 

 

I wish us to look at globalization in a Biblical sense.
