Class #8 in our BOLD Course on Christian Discipling & Biblical Counseling. Adapted from Capitol Hill Baptist Church's Core Seminar on Christian Discipling: https://www.capitolhillbaptist.org/sermon/class-9-encouraging-a-passion-for-evangelism-missions Description from SermonAudio: The lesson emphasizes that evangelism and missions are essential, biblically mandated expressions of the Christian life, rooted in both the fear and love of God, and driven by the joy of sharing the gospel and the desire to bring glory to God. It calls every believer to embrace a lifestyle of evangelism, not as a one-time event but as a 24/7 responsibility, modeled through personal witness, intentional preparation, and relational engagement, while affirming that the church as a whole bears the collective responsibility to support global missions. It underscores that missions are not reserved for a select few but are the calling of the entire church, with every member called either to go or to send, and that supporting missionaries is a vital act of fellowship and spiritual partnership. It further highlights that a passion for missions fosters spiritual growth by breaking down cultural barriers, cultivating love for the global body of Christ, and aligning the believer's heart with God's eternal purpose of gathering a people from every tribe and tongue. The church is urged to cultivate this passion through prayer, shared study of mission literature, personal modeling, and careful discernment in preparing those called to the field, ensuring that missionary candidates meet biblical qualifications and are sent by the church in prayerful, Spirit-led unity.
