August 4th Worship: Christians Just Want to Convert Others
There is this underlying pressure and
expectation that the best disciples of Christ will be evangelical and make
other disciples. While the Great Commission and Christ’s command to make
disciples is a vital part of our work in the Church, we are not just churning
out new believers. Sometimes our work is that of mercy. This Sundays Scripture
reveals that Jesus himself offers up a model for righteousness in a Samaritan,
and the Samaritan never tries to convert the injured man in Jesus’ story to his
faith, but rather seeks first to serve and enact mercy. This Sunday at 9:30 or 11:00
am, come and see how true discipleship is service that leads others to want to
know more, encounter more, and become more in God’s grace. #CrozetUMC
