The sermon at church yesterday spoke to me with regard to our mission – for those who are Christians and the F3 mission.
ACTS 13 and our mission can be viewed in 3 sections. We are: 1. Called In 2. Set Apart 3. Sent Out
CALLED IN
With Christianity and F3, sometimes people think they have to:
Behave >> Believe >> Belong, when in actuality the order is Belong >> Believe >> Behave
Belonging impacts our beliefs, and in turn, our behavior/conduct/decisions improve and change with time
Made me think of the G3L in the Q Source. We must first Get Right (with God, others, and oneself) in order to Live, Lead, and Leave Right.
SET APART
We all have a purpose for how God will use us in life and F3 – we must simply be willing. As the saying goes, “God doesn't call the equipped – He equips the called.” This requires faith.
SENT OUT
We are called to trust and obey God, not have the perspective “I'll only go if I agree with all the conditions.” In the Christian journey and F3, we are called to get outside of what is familiar and comfortable. There is no growth in the comfort zone.
The measure of success for a church/F3 Region should not be about seating capacity (quantity – or sheer numbers, for numbers' sake) but sending capacity (quality, or the amount of impact the group is having in the community/world).
We can look at our Christian journey/church/F3 mission with an ocean vessel illustration:
Are we on a cruise ship focused on luxury? NO!
Are we on a battleship waging war with others? NO! (Not a commentary about spiritual warfare but about being aggressors/stirring up strife)
Rather, we are on an AIRCRAFT CARRIER and we all serve the parts (often alternating between fighter pilots, servicemen, etc.) necessary to empower the mission with a thriving home base and a purposeful focus of executing our mission as a team. SENDING & SERVING!
It was an honor to lead you men this morning and fun standing around in the cold afterward for some fellowship. Grateful to be on this aircraft carrier with you!
