MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: A 4-WEEK SERIES ON EVANGELISM 
WEEK 2 BIG IDEA: BE HELPFUL

SERIES OVERVIEW:

Some people love spy stories for the action, gadgets, or disguises, but there’s one thing no spy story could do without: an exciting mission. As followers of Jesus, we don’t have any gadgets or disguises, but we do have a mission. It’s our mission to share the good news of Jesus with the world. But that mission isn’t always easy to accomplish. In this 4-week series, we’ll discover that joining Jesus on His mission isn’t easy, but it’s not impossible. It’s a mission that requires us to be real, be helpful, be listeners, and be ready.
