Summary
This missions-focused panel emphasizes that God has written Himself into humanity's story through Christ, and now the church is called to help others discover this truth. Using C.S. Lewis's illustration of Macbeth and Shakespeare, Pastor Tom Messer explains that we could never know God unless He revealed Himself to us—which He did through the incarnation. The sermon features testimonies from multiple missionaries, including Ed Gibson (53 years in missions), Jeff and Deanne Duvall (Ecuador), and Mackenzie Beamer (heading to Scotland), highlighting Trinity's rich missions heritage. The central message is that missions isn't optional—it's the heartbeat of the church's purpose. Every believer is called to participate through praying, giving, sending, and going. The church celebrates strategic partnerships in Togo (working toward 190,000 disciples by 2030), Guatemala, Guyana, and other nations, emphasizing that the strength of a church isn't measured by attendance but by how many people it sends out to advance the gospel.
