What does the Bible teach us about God and missionaries? What is a missionary and what is their mission? In what ways is God Himself a missionary? What took place in the Garden of Eden that caused humanity to be lost? How did Jesus Christ address that problem? What were the consequences of Sin? Why did Adam and Eve fall? What implications does this have for missionaries today? Why did God choose to operate through missionaries instead of heavenly beings or doing the work Himself? This week we tackle many of these subjects as we explore God as a missionary.

Learn how the gospel of Luke portrays the crucifixion and resurrection. What do these two events mean for humanity? What hope do they provide for Christian believers? Which person in Jesus' final hours are you most like: Peter, John, Judas, the women, Joseph of Arimathea, Pilate, or Herod?

What was the mission of Jesus? How is that mission expressed in His parables? What do we learn in the parables about how God views the lost?
