Invest

Preacher:
Series:
Passage: Colossians 4:2-6

What do I have to invest? Self
1. A Story
2. Love to Give
3. A message

INVEST = Think “way of life”

What is “the mystery of Christ”? Christ in you. The hope of Glory. Colossians 1:27

How does God “open doors” for people to receive the message of the gospel today?
1. By bringing changes in their life circumstances (often hardship)
2. By bringing someone like you or me into their life with the love and message of Christ.

Because this message is so important, approach also really matters.
“In wisdom, walk with those without.”

3 Kinds of Christian:
1. Cactus - Avoided by outsiders
2. Chameleon - Unnoticed by outsiders
3. Contagious - Admired by outsiders

Which kind of Christian best describes me?
