Traditional Worship Sermon 9-15-2019
Our topic in Week Five of the “Walking With Nehemiah” series is “Inspect Your Mission Field.” Too often we end up doing ministry for people instead of with people. This happens because of two things: we see an “us” and “them” divide, so we identify a need based on statistics or on what we think needs to be done, instead of building relationships with those in the community and letting them tell us what they will partner with us to accomplish. If, like Nehemiah, you walk before you talk, then when you talk, people will walk with you. Scripture for this week is Nehemiah 2: 11-16.Cast: First Methodist Downtown JacksonTags: Christianity, Love, Methodism, God, Sermon, Mercy, Jesus, Community and Mission
