Matt EricksonLeave a comment

This past weekend at Eastbrook, Pastor Dan Ryan concluded our two-week MissionsFest. The visual theme for the MissionsFest is doorways that lead to faith. Dan spoke from Luke 10:1-9 where Jesus sends out the 72 on mission.

You can find Dan’s message outline and video below. You can also access more information about MissionsFest 2022 here. Join us for weekend worship in-person or remotely via Eastbrook at Home.

Three Key words:

Peace (verse 5)

Stay (verse 7)

Heal (verse 9)

Digging Deeper

  • Take time to read the whole book of Acts, and take time reflecting on each story of a person coming to faith, of a church planted, and what that may mean for how you reach out.
  • Read the Missions Serve Guide to see how Eastbrook is Reaching Out and where you can get involved. If you’re already involved, still take time to read it to be encouraged & learn how you can pray for your brothers and sisters in Christ who are Reaching Out in these ministries!
  • All Nations International has wonderful resources to help equip you in areas such as storytelling, and other creative ways to share your faith simply and clearly. Visit their website to see what materials and/or online trainings might be helpful to you.

Set us free, loving Father, from the bondage of our sins, and in your goodness and mercy give us the liberty of that abundant life which you have made known to us in our Savior Jesus Christ; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.  Amen.

“God Opening the Door of Faith”: MissionsFest week 1 with Dr. Mary Ho

Matt EricksonLeave a comment

This past weekend at Eastbrook, we began our two-week MissionsFest with guest speaker Dr. Mary Ho, International Executive Leader of All Nations. The visual theme for the MissionsFest is doorways. Dr. Ho addressed how God both literally opens the door of faith to the least reached and is Himself the very Door to faith! Jesus opened the “door of faith” (Acts 14.27) for the first sending church in history, Antioch Church, which commissioned Paul and Barnabus, the first cross-cultural missionaries in New Testament history! Let us learn from Antioch Church about being a dynamic sending church that sends out workers as “sheep among wolves” (Luke 10:1-3).

You can find her message outline and video below. You can also access more information about MissionsFest 2022 here. Join us for weekend worship in-person or remotely via Eastbrook at Home.
