  6. A Compassionate Call to Discipleship Key thought: The goal of a growing faith is not to merely have one’s needs met, but to serve alongside Jesus to meet the needs of others!!

  8. Jesus’ Power is Unnerving! Over the Natural World 8:22-25 A Compassionate Call to Discipleship

  9. A Compassionate Call to Discipleship Colossians 1:15-17 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

  10. A Compassionate Call to Discipleship Ephesians 1:18-22 I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, 20 which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church…”

  11. Jesus’ Power is Unnerving! Over the Super-Natural World 8:26-39 A Compassionate Call to Discipleship

  12. A Compassionate Call to Discipleship Ephesians 4:27-32 “Do not give the devil a foothold. 28 He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with his own hands, that he may have something to share with those in need. 29 Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. 32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

  13. A Compassionate Call to Discipleship Romans 8:37-39 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

  14. Jesus’ Power is Available! Over the physical World 8:42-48 A Compassionate Call to Discipleship

  17. A Compassionate Call to Discipleship 1 Corinthians 2:12-14 We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us. 13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. 14 The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

  18. A Compassionate Call to Discipleship Key thought: Having less to give God is often better than having more to give him.

  19. A Compassionate Call to Discipleship Key thought: The strongest faith is not that which trusts God to do great things for me…the strongest faith is that which trusts God to help me do great things for others!
