ReCreate Church’s Podcast

Recreate Church, Pastor Michael Shockley—Service, June 18, 2023

Sending Celebration Today, Pastor Michael is taking a Father’s Day sidestep from our study in Mark to talk about Billy Honeycutt’s forthcoming mission trip to Peru. Billy starts off by telling of his daughter calling and wanting him to join them on a mission trip. Throughout the years, everyone in his family has gone off on mission trips, and he was the one left at home to work. So he relates that he really, really wanted to go. Now that he is retired, he’s not so sure about running off to Peru, a city he cannot pronounce (Trujillo)! It’s in Peru, and that, by golly, is what he knows! So this journey is something that took a bit to decide to go! And what follows is Billy’s explanation of what it takes to travel to a foreign country and become a missionary. And folks, it’s not easy! Being called by God but being sent by Recreate Church! 90% of knowing God’s will is just being willing to do it. We are: right in the middle of who we are; we find this statement: we are a team of ministers and missionaries. So what does it mean to be a missionary? We go to the bible for the greatest missionary statement of all, the Great Commission. Four big actions here: Go, Make Disciples, Baptize, and Teach. This is how we do missions anywhere! You are a missionary! Billy, good luck, and God Bless! Verses can be found in Matthew 28: 19-20, Acts 1: 8, and 13: 2-3.

Sending Celebration

Today, Pastor Michael is taking a Father’s Day sidestep from our study in Mark to talk about Billy Honeycutt’s forthcoming mission trip to Peru.

Billy starts off by telling of his daughter calling and wanting him to join them on a mission trip. Throughout the years, everyone in his family has gone off on mission trips, and he was the one left at home to work. So he relates that he really, really wanted to go.

Now that he is retired, he’s not so sure about running off to Peru, a city he cannot pronounce (Trujillo)! It’s in Peru, and that, by golly, is what he knows!

So this journey is something that took a bit to decide to go!

And what follows is Billy’s explanation of what it takes to travel to a foreign country and become a missionary. And folks, it’s not easy!

Being called by God but being sent by Recreate Church!

90% of knowing God’s will is just being willing to do it.

We are: right in the middle of who we are; we find this statement: we are a team of ministers and missionaries.

So what does it mean to be a missionary? We go to the bible for the greatest missionary statement of all, the Great Commission.

Four big actions here: Go, Make Disciples, Baptize, and Teach. This is how we do missions anywhere!

You are a missionary!

Billy, good luck, and God Bless!
