Won't You Be My Neighbor? - Part 6
Not our arguments as much as our influence will finish Christ's work, because nobody was ever won to Jesus by a person he didn't like. "The influence of a holy life is the most convincing sermon that can be given in favor of Christianity. Argument, even when unanswerable, may provoke only opposition; but a godly example has a power that it is impossible wholly to resist” (AA 510.2).

Won't You Be My Neighbor? - Part 5
Part 5 of this sermon series focuses on the question: "Who is my neighbor?" Using the familiar story of the Good Samaritan, we will study the parallels between Jesus'; audience in Jericho that day and those of us who today may still be pondering, "Who is my neighbor?" and how will my actions reflect the principle illustrated by the unwanted, rejected Samaritan who showed mercy to his enemy.

Won't You Be My Neighbor? - Part 3
Part 3 explores the disciples' experience on the road to Emmaus; a story worth retelling because it reminds us that our Christian journey starts with God.

Won't You Be My Neighbor? - Part 2
The story of Zacchaeus is one that is often set aside for children, in this message however we explore the story to find where we as a church stand. The picture of evangelism and the gospel that unfolds in this story offer something for the followers of Jesus today.

Won't You Be My Neighbor? - Part 1
What do you think about when you hear the words personal evangelism? For most people, those words carry a lot of baggage. It evokes scary memories of going door-to-door or speaking with strangers. But is that what evangelism is actually about? In Part 1 of this series we’ll explore the model that Jesus gives, and here’s the good news—it doesn’t involve speaking with strangers.

Annual Sacrifice for Global Mission

Global Mission is the frontline mission arm of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Through the use of wholistic ministry, Global Mission pioneers are bringing light to cities of the world, with a special focus on the 10/40 Window. Since Global Mission began three decades ago, we’ve reached many new people groups and entered new countries. “I Will Go” is the strategic plan of the Adventist church for 2020-2025.

There are missionaries working right now in places like Sri Lanka, Malawi, Indonesia, Cambodia, and veiled countries where preaching the gospel is against the law. There are many mission challenges, because in some places where there is no Adventist presence, it takes about two years of sharing the love of Jesus with non-Christians who live in these areas before they open their hearts to Christ.

Please give sacrificially to support these missionaries and pray for these missionaries and their families. If you feel called to be a missionary there are many opportunities to work in unreached people groups. Visit vividfaith.com to explore missionary opportunities.

We invite you to GO! Go through prayer! Go through giving! Go through service!

Honoring Military Persons

This week we want to honor our military people-Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, Navy-presently serving and who have served in the past, Seventh-day Adventist or not. They have all taken an oath to "support and defend' the U.S. Constitution, for which many have been wounded or given their lives. November 11 is the national day of recognition of the living. We thank each of you for your service and pray that God will sustain, guide, and protect you as you live the oath you took, "so help (you) God." In our international community, we must also recognize service for other countries. Let us all remember them in our prayers.
