15 Ways to be On Mission in 2016

Being On Mission for Christ is a lifestyle. When considering how you can be On Mission, start first by praying and seeking God’s face. God’s will has been over complicated by many. It is not something that is magical or hidden from all that are not “super spiritual heroes”. It is something that God desires all of us to know and understand. In fact, Romans 12:1&2 states that all we have to do is submit to Him. Submit our bodies as a living sacrifice. This is a daily (sometimes hourly) act that is intentional. But when we submit to Him and desire His will in our lives, He shows us His will. He shows us our spiritual gifts. This list of ways to be On Mission could easily become a works based checklist. Don’t use it as that! Confirm His will in your life and use this list as a starting place to pray and seek what He may want to do in your life! With that in mind, here are our top 15 ways to be On MIssion at FSBCG or wherever you find yourself in 2016!
