Man is not an animal as some scientists have inaccruately proclaimed. Man (and woman) are made in the image of God and in His likeness. Being created by God, we are created for God – and are designed to have relationship with Him. Unfortunately, we have to deal with the issue of sin. Sin must be identified and dealt with. Thankfully this is done through Jesus.

Most people think about church in terms of a building or a location. Scripture explains the church is actually an assembly of believers for worship, prayer, study, fellowship, and mission. It is the priority of the church to extend these wonderful blessings into the world and to preach the Gospel to all people in all places. By taking the good news of Jesus into the world, the church engages in what is known as missions. Learn about Biblical church and missions in this lesson.

Evangelism is often a “loaded” term to believers. Most think of a crazed street preacher that is shouting at people walking by. Actually, evangelism is the responsibility of sharing the good news of Jesus with those who are lost. This is accomplished through relationship, proclamation, and faith. Sharing your faith should not be scary or intimidating. When you allow the love of Jesus to work through you, it will become easier and easier.

Therefore, we have a great opportunity and responsibility to use these resources (money) for God’s purposes rather than wasting them on our own pleasure and ambition. You will also learn about generosity and giving in the context of Biblical stewardship.
