Made for More | Sent to Serve

from Village

You were made for more! In the final week of our Made for More series at Village, Pastor Jon Richards unpacks what it means to be Sent to Serve from Matthew 28:18–20. The Christian life doesn’t end with believing — it begins with being sent. Jesus said, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…” That command wasn’t just for pastors or missionaries — it’s for every believer. In this message, discover three powerful truths about living on mission: * Sent under His authority — You don’t go in your own strength; you go in the name of the risen King. * Sent on His mission — God’s heart beats for one more—one more soul, one more story, one more life transformed by Jesus. * Sent with His presence — The Spirit who empowers the mission goes with you into every moment and every place. This sermon will challenge you to see your everyday life—your job, your home, your neighborhood—as your mission field. 💛 Support the ministry of Village and help us bring the gospel to life HERE
