Relationships • Pray for your site contact & your team beforehand, that the entire project will reflect Christ that day. • When you arrive on the site, take time to have everyone introduce themselves. Even if most of the team is comprised of small group or family members, have an opening question for each one to answer. Example: “What do you do during the week?” • If you feel comfortable doing so, pray for the team before you start work.

  14. Biblical Basis for Steppin’ Out • What does it mean to BE the Church? • How does God view an event like Steppin’ Out? Let’s look at Isaiah 58 together. • Isaiah 58 talks about what pleases God – it’s called the Sabbath Fast. • Isaiah 58 contains only 14 verses; but tells God’s people how to please Him on the Sabbath, and what they can expect as a result.

  15. Isaiah 58:1-2 • 1 “Shout! A full-throated shout! Hold nothing back-a trumpet-blast shout! Tell my people what's wrong with their lives, face my family Jacob with their sins! 2They're busy, busy, busy at worship, and love studying all about me. To all appearances they're a nation of right-living people-law-abiding, God-honoring. They ask me, 'What's the right thing to do?' and love having me on their side.”

  16. What are these verses saying? • God’s people are worshiping together, studying God’s Word, and are busy going through the motions of practicing disciplines that foster a vital relationship with God. • “To all appearances” God’s people have a right “vertical” relationship with God. • God’s people sense something is missing, so they ask, “What’s the right thing to do?”

  17. Isaiah 58:6-8 • 6 “This is the kind of fast day I'm after: to break the chains of injustice, get rid of exploitation in the workplace, free the oppressed, cancel debts. • 7What I'm interested in seeing you do is: sharing your food with the hungry, inviting the homeless poor into your homes, putting clothes on the shivering ill-clad, being available to your own families. • 8Do this and the lights will turn on, and your lives will turn around at once. Your righteousness will pave your way. The God of glory will secure your passage.”

  18. What are these verses saying? • God is interested in His people fostering “horizontal” relationships, first within their own families, and then within the neighboring community through acts of compassion. • God’s people demonstrate love to their neighbors on the Sabbath by meeting basic human needs of food, shelter, and clothing to those who lack the necessities of life.

  19. Isaiah 58:10-12 • 10 “If you are generous with the hungry and start giving yourselves to the down-and-out, your lives will begin to glow in the darkness, your shadowed lives will be bathed in sunlight. • 11I will always show you where to go. I'll give you a full life in the emptiest of places-firm muscles, strong bones. You'll be like a well-watered garden, a gurgling spring that never runs dry. • 12You'll use the old rubble of past lives to build anew, rebuild the foundations from out of your past. You'll be known as those who can fix anything, restore old ruins, rebuild and renovate, make the community livable again.”

  20. What are these verses saying? • If, in addition to the disciplines that foster our relationship “vertically”, we as a church body demonstrate compassion “horizontally” to those in our community who are less fortunate, God promises to make our lives flourish. • If we love our neighbors as a church, God brings renewal to our surrounding community.

  21. Isaiah 58:13-14 • 13 “If you watch your step on the Sabbath and don't use My holy day for personal advantage, If you treat the Sabbath as a day of joy, God's Holy day as a celebration, if you honor it by refusing 'business as usual,' making money, running here and there – • 14Then you'll be free to enjoy God! Oh, I'll make you ride high and soar above it all. I'll make you feast on the inheritance of your ancestor Jacob.” Yes! God says so!

  22. What are these verses saying? • God wants us to worship and study His Word and pray; but these disciplines are not enough for spiritual growth. • We are to fulfill the two great commands in order to grow spiritually: 1. Love God and 2. Love our neighbors just as we do ourselves. • “In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:16 ESV
