You're not special. You don't have supernatural abilities or impressive credentials. You can't heal people at will or perform miracles on command. But here's what you are: sacred. Set apart by God. Empowered by the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead. And that changes everything. This message kicks off a four-week series about being sent into a lost world—not as the hero, but as someone who knows the Hero and has been invited into His story. What if the harvest is rotting because the laborers are sitting in the barn? What if anger at lost people is keeping you from the compassion that actually moves you to action?#YoureNotSpecial #YoureSacred #Sent #OnMission #Evangelism #CompassionNotAnger #TheHarvest #Empowered #OrdinaryFaithfulness #GospelPower(0:00) Welcome and New Year's resolutions(1:41) SENT series kickoff: You're the plan(3:46) Four weeks of being sent into the world(5:26) Big Idea: You're not special, you're sacred(6:42) Matthew 9:35-38: Gospel of the kingdom(8:57) Missing Jesus because He wasn't the solution they imagined(11:14) Jesus had compassion on harassed and helpless crowds(13:23) Why anger at lost people instead of compassion?(16:21) Stone hearts don't burn, flesh hearts do(17:22) Jesus taught, preached, and healed(20:44) You are a miracle—spiritual death to life(22:01) Foster parenting story: Nine months for two weeks(24:28) Baptizing the foster kid who showed up to youth group(26:48) What is God calling you to that seems inconvenient?(28:32) Most of the world is lost—the harvest is plentiful(29:50) The laborers are sitting in the barn(31:56) You're commissioned to go from disciple to disciple-maker(33:49) You're not impressive, you're empowered(35:14) Ping pong ball wall demonstration(37:29) Sign up for events and serving opportunities(38:56) Pray daily, serve somewhere, invite people(41:11) Gospel explanation and salvation prayer
