Living Life on Mission

Jul 21st 2008Jeremy MyersEvangelism & Mission

In a previous post, I made some suggestions about how to do evangelism more effectively. Yesterday, at Mosaic Arlington, Stephen Hammond provided the following list, which I thought was excellent, so I am sharing it with you here:

“Ways to get On Mission this Summer with your Life”

*Host a party for your neighbors as a way to get to know each other

*Organize a garage sale with the proceeds going to help us drill our next well in El Salvador (or you pick another great cause)

*Spend a few hours with the ‘least of these’ as you learn more about life, love and hope

*Start a book reading club at the local bookstore

*Host a charity poker tournament to help relieve AIDS suffering in Africa (or another charitable cause you want to help out)

*Share with your friends how Jesus is changing your life

*Take your family to the $1 movie….but pay for the family behind you as well as a way to demonstrate God’s love in a very practical way

*Get involved in cleaning up the debris in your neighborhood/city

*Prayer walk your neighborhood, your job site, your school or any place you desire to see God’s hope come

*Clean a friend’s home

*Provide free childcare to a family who could use a date night out but probably can’t afford childcare right now

*Host a ‘gaming’ night for your friends

*Pick something/anything that will bring hope and encouragement to another person and then just do it!

Thanks Stephen!
