Go – Today, wherever we are, we represent Jesus. This week, I hope to make all of my illustrations for these next 5 podcasts from the story of the Good Samaritan. This is found in Luke 10:30-37.

Today on the Marketplace Mission Trip, our message is to “Go.” Everywhere we go, we have an opportunity to join Jesus. He’s working all the time in the life of everyone we meet. Four men were going down to Jericho from Jerusalem. Jesus tells us the first one was beaten and robbed. Three others followed. The first 2 were too busy or had some other reason not to help.

Notice the first two were church leaders. They passed the man who had been robbed without doing anything. Do you see the people you work with? I mean really see them? Do you have any idea what’s going on in their family, or in their career? In the Great Commission, we’re told to go and make disciples (Matthew 28:18-20). The word translated “go” could also be translated “as you go” or “having gone.” As we go today, or wherever we are, we make disciples. Our 5 daily activities are designed to help us keep our faith present every day.

Today, as you go, will you look around? Will you pay attention? Will you see God in your interruptions or will you see obstacles?

And maybe you’re not on our Marketplace Mission Trip. If you follow Jesus, this is a great exercise we take periodically to help us get on mission with Jesus. We so easily get swept up on our own agendas. This is a 2-week exercise to remind us to see things from Jesus’ perspective. Learn more and sign up for the next trip at MarketplaceMissionTrip.com. You can even get some training and assistance so you can lead this mission trip exercise for a group of your friends. Check it out at MarketplaceMissionTrip.com.
