Scripture: 2 Cor 5:11, 13-21, Matt 16:13-19, 1 Cor 9:22-23

Main Points: 1. Next Generation: There comes a point when we have to call the Next Generation to stand. If

they are going to stand, then we must let them. This is how families grow!

2. City of the Dead: The revelation of Jesus as Messiah is a turning point in Church history. If he

is the Messiah, we have a mission to take authority over the darkness in our world!

3. Build the Church: Paul recognized that the building of God’s church hinged on his ability to

identify with those in need so that he could lead them to God. This is our task now.
