Come and See | The Adventure of An Invitational Faith

June 24, 2024

The Christian life offers something deeper, a life of not merely watching as consumers but discovering our intended purpose in living a great adventure. Following Jesus, when fully realized in our lives put to death the self-centric outlook to our faith and elevates us to a life of joining in the unfailing mission of Jesus Christ in the world. We move from the sit and watch, consumeristic mindset, to experiencing the overflow of the Spirit within us which leads us to proclaim “Come and see.”
