“God’s Mission – My Mission” consistently points us to our Gracious God and how He wishes us to portray what He has done for us. In response we will reach out to others: 
Hymn 573 – I’ll Go Where You Want Me To Go, Dear Lord, hence our theme hymn. This is in response to 
So Send I You – Hymn 573.

Just as the Memory Text tells us of the words spoken to the disciples while Jesus was with them, we are able to request 
Lord, Speak to Me – Hymn 541 so that we are equipped to 
Go, Preach My Gospel – Hymn 378.

The joys the followers of Jesus had at the resurrection morning are in 
Christ The Lord Is Risen Today – Hymn 166 so that we are enabled to 
Go, Preach My Gospel – Hymn 378 and  
Go Forth, Go Forth With Christ – Hymn 377 “To Share The Good News” (Sunday).

Our request on Monday is 
Lord, I Have Made Thy Word My Choice – Hymn 278 so bless that I may be “grounded firm and deep in the Savior’s love” in 
Hymn 534 – Will Your Anchor Hold? (chorus).

As with the disciples awaiting the Holy Spirit to descend on them, we may say 
At First I Prayed for Light – Hymn 488 and now ask 
Come, Holy Spirit – Hymn 269. The story of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit is given further to us on Wednesday.

To be a disciple for our Lord Jesus today, it is wise to 
Seek Ye First The Kingdom – Hymn 224 and grow in the love of Jesus to then 
Go, Preach My Gospel – Hymn 378.

So, dear people, be encouraged to go forward so that we and all our friends and neighbors will be rejoicing 

When We All Get To Heaven – Hymn 633.

To learn unknown hymns, you will find the accompaniment music for each one at: https://sdahymnals.com/Hymnal/

Another great resource is for when there is a hymn you wish to sing but can’t find it in your hymnal. Go to https://www.sdahymnal.org/Search and in the search bar type a special word in that is in the hymn. I am sure you will be amazed at the help you will be given.

 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV – “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”

Key Thought: Our mission work comes from deep love and thankfulness for what Jesus has done and is doing in our lives. Staying in the word and in tune with the word is the key to successful outreach and evangelism.
November 11, 2023

A. Have a volunteer read Luke 24:36-49

1. Ask class members to share a short thought on what the most important point is in this passage.
2. What was the response of those who heard about the risen Christ?
3. Personal Application: What was an experience you have had with God and His love? How did this, or does this, motivate you to reach out to others? Share your thoughts..
4. Case Study: One of your relatives states, “How well grounded are you in the matter of Christ’s first coming and His second coming? Why must we be grounded in the word and prophecies for these last days?” How would you respond to your relative?

B. Have a volunteer read Acts 1:14, 21-26.

1. Ask class members to share a thought on what the most important point in this text is.
2. What were the disciples doing while they were waiting for the promised outpouring of the Spirit?
3. Personal Application: How can you wait upon the Lord and not lose faith? How can we best use our time as the disciples did? Share your thoughts
4. Case Study: One of your friends states, “What does it mean they “cast lots” after praying? Was it a flip of the coin, or a voting process? It seems to make a difference in understanding the method of choosing in accord with prayer, doesn’t it?” How would you respond to your friend?

C. Have a volunteer read Acts 2:7-11, 37-41.

1. Ask class members to share a short thought on what the most important point in this text is.
2. What can we glean about the makeup of the early church from these verses? What challenges might they have had because of their diversity of language and culture?
3. Personal Application: When we disciple and bring those from different backgrounds into a personal relationship with Jesus, how do we bring them into fellowship with other believers? Share your thoughts.
4. Case Study: One of your neighbors states: “I’ve heard of thousands of people giving their lives to Jesus in other countries, and sometimes in America. But what kind of fellowship and discipling takes place in these mass baptisms? What are they baptized into? A church? How are they being taught? I would be concerned about these mass baptisms today.”.” How would you respond to your relative

D. Have a volunteer read Acts 2:41-47

1. Ask class members to share a thought on what the most important point in this text is.
2. What does it mean to us today that some that encouraged Jesus’ death were offered salvation?
3. Personal Application: How do we help new believers continue steadfastly in doctrine, fellowship, prayer, and breaking of bread?. Share your thoughts.
4. Case Study: Think of one person who needs to hear a message from this week’s lesson. Tell the class what you plan to do this week to share with them.
