If you are a Christian, you were born again into a life mission God has generally and specifically designed for you. Generally, you are a part of the larger mission to make disciples of all nations (Matt. 28:19-20), and to reach the nations for King Jesus (Luke 24:47). Specifically, you have been gifted by the Holy Spirit with supernatural skills, talents, burdens, and vision which you alone can bring to the mission. When we come together, we pool the gifts God has given us specifically for the mission in general, and the results range anywhere from interesting to spectacular.
Life Mission Groups meet each Wednesday night at 7pm for this purpose: to continue on our mission together in a more focused, intimate, informal context. The next two years are crucial to Church in the Boro as we grow together in two very significant, crucial, and biblical responsibilities in the mission together: The One Another's and the Spiritual Gifts.
Beginning in September 2009, Church in the Boro will begin working through the One Another's in a unique way. Over the course of the next year, each month will be spent with a special focus on a One Another passage. The first Wednesday night will be spent teaching on the biblical texts. The following Wednesday nights will be spent practicing and praying through them, in order to make them become more and more a second nature mindset in our lives.
Beginning in September 2010, God willing, Church in the Boro will begin working through the Spiritual Gifts in the same unique way. The first Wednesday night of each month will center around teaching on the biblical texts associated with a particular gift. And the following Wednesdays will be spent praying through each one, and seeking the Spirit on how to practice each one.
We invite you to become a part of this vital core of Church in the Boro as we continue on our mission together to reconcile sinners to God, people to each other, and the world to King Jesus!
