Guest Preacher Eric Hesse Lessons on Living a Sent Life

Guest Preacher: Eric Hesse
Title: Lessons on Living a Sent Life
Texts: Matthew 4:12-17; Psalm 139
Link to Sermon: Title: Lessons on Living a Sent Life
Big Idea
      We must live sent because it’s not readily apparent to people that Jesus is the light of spiritual life
Main Points
  1. Like Jesus, we must intentionally flow to places of darkness in order to shine His light (Matthew 4:12-17)
  2. God will go before you and lead you with his sustaining presence when you follow him into the darkness (Psalm 139)

Application questions:
1.     Tell of a time when the power failed and you had to function without any light. What was that experience like?
2.     How does it make you feel to hear that God knows everything about you (the good, the bad, the ugly), yet doesn’t reject you but wants to lead and guide you?
3.     Where are the places of injustice and brokenness around you? Where can you find people desperate for good news? Where are the hopeless, harassed, helpless, and oppressed in our community?
4.     What must change in your family or church rhythm/schedule in order for you to shine the love of Christ in a place of need?
