Mission: Forward

In this powerful message, we explore the concept of 'ambidextrous faith' - a balanced approach to our spiritual lives that involves both internal growth and external witness. Drawing from Luke 24:35-53, we see Jesus appearing to His disciples after the resurrection, opening their minds to understand the Scriptures, and commissioning them to be witnesses. This passage reminds us that our faith journey isn't just about personal comfort, but about moving forward in God's mission. The analogy of playing bass guitar, requiring both hands to work differently yet in harmony, beautifully illustrates how we're called to minister both inside and outside the church. We're challenged to step out of our comfort zones, whether that means serving within our church community or boldly sharing our faith in the world. This message encourages us to embrace a fuller, more dynamic faith that impacts both our personal growth and our ability to reach others with God's love.
