Core Values Week 7
The sermon emphasizes lifestyle evangelism—living in such a way that our daily actions reflect the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
At Christ Chapel, the core values guiding this lifestyle are:
- Win the lost
- Disciple the found
- Heal the broken
- Send the whole
The message highlights that many who profess faith in Christ do not live in a way that reflects true discipleship. Using 1 Thessalonians 2:1–12, Paul’s example shows that believers are called to be witnesses empowered by the Holy Spirit.
Key Points of the Sermon
1) Pray and receive boldness from the Holy Spirit
Evangelism begins with prayer and reliance on the Spirit for courage and clarity.
2) Plead the gospel with clean hands and a pure heart
Integrity matters—our message is strengthened when our lives match our words.
3) Live a life worthy of the Gospel of Jesus Christ
Paul stresses the importance of pleasing God rather than people. A church oriented around “consumer preferences” loses faithfulness to the Gospel. God must remain the focus.
Understanding Lifestyle Evangelism
Lifestyle evangelism means being faithful disciples, trusting the Gospel fully, and living it out consistently—no matter what others may think. Paul modeled this through a ministry rooted in deep, parental-like love for those he served.
Reflection Questions
If people watched your life for a day, what would they see?
If God evaluated your day, what would He see?
The sermon challenges believers to evaluate their daily walk and ensure their lives align with the Gospel they profess.
