Life on Mission

In this powerful exploration of Acts 1:1-5, we're reminded that the kingdom of God advances through lives lived on mission. Just as the disciples witnessed the risen Christ, we too are called to be His witnesses in the world. The 40 days Jesus spent with His disciples after His resurrection weren't just about proving He was alive, but about preparing them—and us—for the mission ahead. The good news is that we're not alone in this mission. Just as Jesus promised the disciples the Holy Spirit, we too are empowered by God's very presence within us. This truth should both humble and inspire us, knowing that despite our brokenness, God chooses to use us to advance His kingdom. Let's embrace this calling with courage and faith, recognizing that our witness, empowered by the Spirit, can have far-reaching impacts we may never fully see in this lifetime.
