Title: Global Missions Is For Everyone

Our church desires to fulfil the Great Commission and this includes bringing the Gospel to the nations. What are some of our core beliefs regarding global missions?

General Questions:

  1. What is global missions to you? How relevant is it to you in your current life station and why?

Perspective Questions:

  1. The Lausanne Covenant (1974) declared that “World evangelisation requires the whole Church to take the whole gospel to the whole world.” By extension, every member in every church should be missions minded. How does this challenge your view on global missions? Have we excluded ourselves from the work of world evangelisation for various reasons? Why?
  2. How have some believers re-defined or diluted missions according to their personal preference (e.g. community work)? What are the dangers in doing so?

Application Questions:

  1. The more we value the Gospel, the greater our desire will be to fulfil the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-2). No matter where you are at in your missions journey, what is a first or next step you can take to participate in God’s global mission?
  2. How do you think going for a Short Term Mission (STM) trip as a lifegroup will change or enrich the LG? If your LG embarks on a STM trip in the next 1-2 years, how can you contribute?

Title: Shine His Light
Text: Matthew 5:14-16

We are called to be the salt and light of the Earth. How do we shine God’s light wherever we are placed?

General Questions

  1. Share about a time when you were a pre-believer or a new-believer and you were attracted to the Christian faith because of the behaviour of another believer. 

Perspective questions 

  1.  What are some distinct qualities and traits that Christians ought to have that non-believers, who may be brought up well or from other faiths, do not? 
  2. How does the Gospel enable believers to live out qualities and traits that non-believers may not be able to display?  

Application questions 

  1. How can believers ensure that we are continually growing in character and being renewed and transformed in our minds?
  2. What are some ways we can shine God’s light in our schools and workplaces? How can we do the same as a lifegroup through block pastoring? 

We are called to be the salt and light of the Earth. How do we shine God’s light wherever we are placed? 

Title: Filling the Open Chair
Text: Luke 14:15-24

What are the attitudes we should have when inviting people to the feast in God’s kingdom?

Perspective Questions:

  1. What kinds of excuses do people  usually make when rejecting God’s invitation to the heavenly banquet? Why do you think they make such excuses? What do you think are their concerns or fears behind the excuses?

Application Questions:

  1. Like the servant in the parable, we may face rejections when we invite people to know the love of Jesus. How can we still be relentless in inviting people?

  2. What are some concerns or fears that may be holding us back from calling people to the heavenly feast? How can we go all out to persuade people to participate in God’s great banquet?

God has planned a great celebration in His Kingdom for all and He has put us in-charge of the invitations!
Learn how we can make space in our hearts and life groups for more people to experience God.

Just as how Jesus sent His disciples to preach the Gospel, He is sending us out to our schools and neighbourhoods. Learn how we can make a lasting impact in the community God has placed us in!

What do charts and graphs have to do with seasons?

This Sunday morning, Pastor Daniel Wee from Church Of Our Saviour shared some statistics about the Singapore church, and what it tells us about the season that the church is in. The time is now to preach the gospel in Singapore and reach the unreached. It may seem like a daunting task, but we remember the heart of our God for His people.

And we go forth, together ❤️‍🔥

Jesus began his parable, “A farmer went out to sow his seed…” He went on to describe four different types of soils that the seeds fell on, yielding different outcomes. Learn from Jesus’ parable about the conditions of human hearts, and how this Christmas, we can sow with faith and reap with joy.
