Ephesians 3:1-13

We see that Paul is preaching to the Gentiles, however sharing the Gospel can be hard, but can you think of a time when someone NOT just preached the Gospel, but ENCOURAGED you with it? We just should quote the book down someones mouth, but share the Gospel through our words and also actions... after all we don't want to scare them away from us...!

(vv. 7-10) What's was Pauls mission, that God has given him? >> Has God given you a mission lately... have you taken that mission or are standing on the sidelines, just wait for something BETTER...?

(vv. 10-11) What mission does the church have, according to the passage? >> Has your church taken this mission forward, has it expanded this mission into ministry in action? Sometimes we can continue our minisrty without growing... but God wants us to grow in our ministry and relationship to continue to grow closer to him.... but we as humans just want to keep with in our "comfort ZONE", are you ready to MOVE the church into this mission...?

(vv. 11-12) How can we share the Gospel so people can REALLY hear it? >> Sometimes people put up their defense wall, blocking out what they don't know nor understand... but lets not become discouraged, but become that seed planter and continue to plant that seed and allow God to bloom within that person... We can list friends that don't know the Lord, but right now we can continue to pray for them... after all their still friends with us, so they have seen our light shining....!
