Global Missions: ”Building the Kingdom of God When All Other Kingdoms are Crumbling” by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This week starts Mission Week and our message is called Global Missions: Building the Kingdom of God When All Other Kingdoms are Crumbling. In Luke 21:5-19, Jesus begins to prepare his disciples for a time of kingdom turbulence. Recently, I flew on a flight that had terrible turbulence to the point that the plane was damaged on landing. We weren’t prepared for that and it was a relief to be safely on the ground in Nashville. In this passage, Jesus warns that there are rough times ahead for the nation of Israel and for Jesus’ disciples, but it is in that chaos and crumbling that God is building His kingdom.

This text is a great passage of Scripture for the times in which we live. As we commit ourselves again as a church to global missions, it is encouraging to know that Christ will build His church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. The times are turbulent but our mission is clear. Will you pray with our Missions Team that God will expand and strengthen Waterbrooke’s impact for Christ among the nations? Will you ask God how you might be a part of His kingdom work personally?

Looking forward to worshiping Jesus with you this Sunday! Pray with us for a fresh work of the Spirit in our midst.

In Christ,
Kevin Dibbley, Senior Pastor
