Overview

Church is wherever God's people go — and I take it everywhere!

Core Teaching

Before we start today — we are going outside! [March outside.] Look around. Where do you think God is right now? [Everywhere!] That means church — God's people — can be everywhere too!

On this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.

Matthew 16:18

Discussion

  • What would it mean for your school to encounter the church — not the building, but YOU?
  • If the church is a legislative assembly, not just a gathering, what does that mean for how we engage with our community, our schools, our local government?
  • In what ways has your family been scattered from a homeland to this city? How might that scattering be God's deployment rather than just displacement?
