Anticipating Worship: Second Sunday after Pentecost, June 22, 2025—Undivided Attention: Our Purpose

By -

We tend to think of mission work as being “over there,” something done in a far-away place. Something is off if we allow our appreciation for “over there” mission work to take our eyes off the mission that is right before us. Here is the two-fold reality worthy of our undivided attention this week. First, if we have seen the grace of God, we will serve as witnesses for Christ. Second, we need not cross the ocean to share the gospel. We can simply cross the street. God will provide one opportunity after another to serve as the witnesses Jesus has made us to be. Let us continue to pray for and support “over there” mission work. But let us also give our undivided attention to the mission that God has placed right before each of us.
