2001-04-29 Missions Speaker - Steve Smith

What does it mean practically for a local church to see itself as "God's missionary people" rather than just supporting missions? How should understanding the church as God's family change the way members relate to each other? In this inspiring missions message, veteran missionary Steve Smith reveals three powerful truths about Trinity's identity: they are Christ's vision for building his kingdom, God's family with household responsibilities, and God's missionary people by nature rather than just by committee. Through compelling examples from church planting in Ivory Coast and the New Testament pattern of church multiplication, this message challenges every believer to embrace their role in God's global strategy while functioning as family members who demonstrate divine love to a watching world.
