Mission on Mt Arbel
from Living Faith Christian Church: Messages, Studies, & Stories · host Pastor Scott Lothery
In the early 1900’s, the Standard Oil Company was preparing to establish itself in Indonesia. Company executives sought a manager for their Indonesian operations. They were informed that the man best qualified for the place was a certain missionary. Their offer of a salary to him was enormous, but he declined. After more offers were turned down, finally they said, “Just name your salary.” “Oh,” he replied, “the salary is big enough, but the job isn’t!” That man had a firm grip on something that nags at all our souls as Christians. We know that we are called to be involved in something greater than our regular work – the mission of Jesus. Matthew 28:16-20 explains the 3 ways we can do that.
