Reminder: “Build My Church” Commitment Cards
If you haven't turned in your commitment card yet, either physically or digitally, please drop yours off at the "hub" or complete the digital card. You can access the digital card here.
A Note on the Application Questions
If you review the application questions below, you will notice that some questions will give you the opportunity to discuss the "Build My Church" series that we just completed. Be sure to lead the group in a discussion that allows time for them to give feedback while also processing how God is convicting and encouraging them in light of what they will commit to pray, invest, and work in the years to come.
Pray for the Albania STM Team
Pray for the Albania team! There is a young man (17) who is leaning into the gospel with the team. They are praying desperately for his salvation. He comes from a Muslim background, so be praying for him to have the courage to follow Jesus.
Fellowship Friday Next Week
Ladies, be sure to remind your Life Group of the upcoming Fellowship Friday. It's at Orah Brandt Park in Nampa from 9-11am on Friday, June 13th.
Sunday’s Sermon:
Ambitiously Open-Handed
1 Corinthians 15:56-16:10
Briefly discuss and debrief the “Build My Church” series.
What were you challenged by?
How were you encouraged?
What are you excited about?
As Christians, we tend to lack ambition in our personal (and collective) ministry efforts and/or we lack open-handedness (we insist on our own way). Which one would you say you personally struggle with most? What steps can you take to grow in that area?
A.W. Tozer once said, “Every Christian should be looking to the Lord for something to do in the kingdom of God, and everyone ought to be asking God to honor him with a job too big for him.” What is something specific that you can do in the kingdom of God that is “too big” for you?
Read 1 Corinthians 15:56-58. Why should Christ’s victory over sin and death motivate and fuel our “work in the Lord”?
Work through each of the three “commitments” connected to the “Build My Church” initiative.
Pray: Read 1 Corinthians 15:56-58. How should Christ’s victory over sin and death motivate and fuel your prayers as you commit to the “work of the Lord?”
Invest: Read 1 Corinthians 16:1-4. What role does generosity currently have in your involvement at Compass Bible Church? How can you grow in generosity for the sake of supporting ministry efforts both individually and corporately?
Work: Read 1 Corinthians 16:5-11. What “wide door for effective work” has God opened for you in this season? How can you strategize for ongoing ministry opportunities?
