  1. Lance Armstrong Quite simply, I believed I had a responsibility to be a good person, and that meant fair, honest, hardworking, and honorable. If I did that, if I was good to my family, true to my friends, if I gave back to my community or to some cause, if I wasn't a liar, a cheat, or a thief, then I believed that should be enough.

  2. The Christ-Centered Message to the World Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” Matthew 9:35-38

  12. Take a Step ASK 1. Does my life reflect daily Christ- centered service? 2. How much does the unsaved world “hurt” me? 3. Am I praying for God to send people to serve? Am I really willing to be used? The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it . . . “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. . . “ Psalm 24:1; Matthew 28:18

  13. Take a Step ACT • Today, I am going to start praying daily for God to break my heart. • I will daily pray for God to send people to serve. • I am going to be accountable for my life of service. Go into all the world and make disciples . . . Matthew 28:19
