“I have a whole bunch of people that have bought into this missional community thing and lifestyle–living like missionaries in our city–but HOW do you keep them motivated? They start out all fired up, but after a while, they seem to fizzle out.” Sound familiar?
This week on the Lifeschool Podcast, we talk about why you need Gospel Motivation to lead your church, small group, or family toward a life on mission with God… and what happens when you don’t.
For those of us that were raised in the church, there is a sense of the law and legalism when it comes to having a motivation to live on mission with God. Legalism, at times, produces outward change but not on a lasting heart level. Using “should” and “supposed to” only leads to fear or self-righteousness. Neither of these are good motivators if you want to sustain a lifestyle and movement within your tribe.
In This Episode of the Lifeschool Podcast You’ll Learn:
- How the ‘American Dream’ life may be a smokescreen in your life and a convenient excuse for not living on mission.
- Why what you believe in your head will change what you believe in your heart.
- How the gospel changes ALL of our motivations, affections, and even our locations.
- Why a “Christian life” lived under the wrong motivation is not attractive to non-believers.
